This study explores the relationship between talent management (TM) practices and innovative capabilities in the technology sector. A survey of 405 managerial staff revealed a significant positive correlation between TM practices and innovative capabilities (r = 0.585, p < 0.01), with TM practices serving as a strong predictor. These findings provide valuable insights into how TM practices contribute to enhancing innovative capabilities potential. The study’s implications extend to both academia and industry, offering practical guidance for optimizing TM strategies. Organizations can benefit by prioritizing competency-based assessments, fostering interdisciplinary collaboration, and cultivating a culture of knowledge sharing and agility. By integrating these elements, businesses can strengthen their innovative capabilities and maintain a competitive edge in the rapidly evolving technology landscape.
