Tiivistelmä:In this article, the effects of focal firm knowledge intensity and uncertainty on inter-organizational trust and subsequent performance of small and medium size enterprises (SMEs) are examined. It is suggested that knowledge intensity of the focal firm will have a positive relationship while uncertainty will have a negative relationship with inter-organizational trust in an exchange relationship. It is also suggested a positive relationship between trust and SME performance, which will be random on the level of external and internal uncertainty faced by the focal firm. Empirical evidence, based on the survey data of 565 German SMEs, mainly supports the arguments.
