This paper applies Fuzzy-DEMATEL and ANP to analyse the decisive determinants of technological innovation capabilities (TICs) and the weight relation in high-tech and traditional manufacturing industries. Technological innovation capabilities comprise various features that are complex and interrelated. Thus, the purpose of this paper is to clarify the causal relationship of the various features to precisely provide the enterprises with some determinants to maximize the effectiveness of resource utilization. In terms of dimension, the research shows that the innovation management capability is the decisive factor of technological innovation capabilities for high-tech industry and traditional manufacturing industry, which affects the other five dimensions. However, in terms of criteria, learning capabilities are decisive determinants. Therefore, in the face of competitive environment with continuous shortening of the product life cycle and rapidly changing customer demands, overall, in
order to enhance innovation capabilities, enterprises must focus on the improvement of innovation management capabilities. In regard to the detail factors, the enterprises must enhance the learning capabilities to recognize, absorb and make use of knowledge from the internal organization in order to strengthen the knowledge management capability, the innovative decision-making capability and technology of the enterprise itself.
