Characteristics of the innovation activities of firms in Europe: a critical review of international differences

Original language description

This study compared results from two systems of estimation and showed that both international and regional comparisons are rather problematic because of different definitions of innovation variables and data set representativeness. On average, a typical firm that engaged in innovation was a large firm competing in international markets in the sample of firms with 20+ employees. Smaller firms, however, invested more in research and development (R&amp;D) and no linear relationship was found for output characteristics. Cooperation on R&amp;D projects increased overall innovation intensity. In this paper, it is shown that results of innovation studies cannot be compared or used in research without deeper analysis of the data sample.
