This study attempts to address the questions of how HRM practices and entrepreneur training interact with innovation, which then affect SMF performance. Two hundred eighty-four samples were obtained from SMFs in Malaysia. This study found that the employee and employer training interacted with innovation and significantly influenced SMF performance. Theoretically, greater performance of SMFs is not merely explained by how much they put their effort in innovation, but also how much they invest in employee and employer training. This also reminds the SMFs that innovation and training of both employee and entrepreneur must go hand in hand, so that their performance could be enhanced.
