Do quality management system standards affect firm innovation? Results from an empirical research

Original language description

In the Industry 4.0, innovation is one of driving forces of economic development and competitiveness of countries. There are many factors explaining the variation of innovation. Quality management is considered a factor that affects innovation. The impact of quality management (QM) on innovation is usually studied in the context of enterprises. Few papers investigate these impacts in the context of countries. This paper aims to answer the question of whether quality management system standards affect innovation of countries. To answer this question, we collected the number of ISO 9001, ISO 14001 from the International Organization for Standardization and Innovation rate from the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) of 100 countries during the period 2011-2017. The countries are divided into five different regions including Africa, Asia, Europe, Middle East, Americas. We use descriptive statistics and OLS regression to analyze the panel data. The results show that both ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 have positive effects on innovation of countries. If the number of ISO 9001 increases by 1%, the innovation rate will increase by an average of 1.18%. If the number of ISO 14001 increase by 1%, the innovation rate will increase by an average of 1.11%. High-income countries have higher Innovation rate about 7% compared with middle- and low-income countries. Besides, income and location of countries also affect the innovation of countries.
