Consultants are essential conduits to transfer knowledge, technologies and innovations to firms and other economic agents. Using data from the Eurostat Community Innovations Survey conducted between 2012 and 2014 and the doubly robust estimation methodology, this study, as expected, found a positive and statistically significant relationship between product and process innovations, intramural R&D, engagement in R&D, market introduction of innovations, engagement in other preparation influenced firms to rely on the services of external consultants. The results of the propensity-score matching also show that on average, firms that relied on the services of consultants were 61% more likely to improve their product innovations and 62% organizational innovations than those firms that didn’t u...

Supranational and national resources have jointly combined to create sound innovation strategies and diffusion policies for member states in recent times. However, there is the question of whether increased innovation translates to effective diffusion of innovation. With this in mind, the present research aims to comparatively assess and evaluate the efficiency of diffusion of innovation of European Union member states in reference to their European Innovation Survey rankings. Using the Charnes, Cooper and Rhodes (CCR) model of Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA), the present research found contrasting diffusion efficiency scores of member states with different innovation performances as most innovative member states had much lower efficiency scores compared to some supposedly weak innovating member states. We also computed the input-redundancy and output...

Many scholars have tipped public procurement as an attractive measure to help boost innovation in firms for the state to achieve its innovation goals. But there has been a worrying case mainly by actors within the public sector and scholars to explore this policy instrument to support innovation. In light of the above, the research seeks to analyze the effect of public procurement contracts on the firm’s product and service innovation. Using logistic Regression model for the CIS 2014 data we analyze this effect in the case of the Czech Republic, Norway and Slovakia. Our empirical results showed that, the use of this policy instrument is dependent mostly on the type of innovation. We found that firms received contracts to execute projects from the public sector for service provision in all cases but in the case of product innovation, only Czech Republic firms did receive a public...

To pursue this, governments have mediated this process by enacting and enforcing legislative instruments and efficiently appropriating research outcomes by providing public funding support structures to aid universities in their research commercialization efforts. The paper aims to examine various public funding schemes available for firm's innovation collaborations and how they influence firm's cooperation. Using data from the Eurostat's Community Innovation Survey (2012–2014) and the binary logistic regression model, we found that funding from the central government was a significant determinant influencing firm's collaborations with universities, other enterprises in the enterprises group and with government research centres. Conversely,...

V souladu s tim se narodni a nadnarodni ekonomiky aktivně zapojuji do financnich programů na podporu malých a střednich podniků při hledani inovaci a jsou považovany za ucinne gesto pro urychleni růstu inovaci v zemich a dokonce pro eliminaci selhani trhu. Zda se vsak, že nedavne důkazy ukazuji, že v některých zemich tomu tak vždy nebylo, protože financovani z veřejneho sektoru bylo odloženo na neinovacni podniky, ktere nebyly přimo použity pro inovace, nebo dokonce nebyly dostatecně ucinne. Proto s využitim modelu logisticke regrese a kombinovaných udajů 8 146 malých a střednich podniků z průzkumu inovaci Evropskeho spolecenstvi (2012–2014) se výzkum snaži posoudit, jak veřejne financovani ovlivňuje snahy o inovaci produktů, procesů a marketingu při generovani technologicka inovace představovana patenty.

Proto existuji výrazne rozdily v hospodařskem růstu různých zemi. Mezi modely vytvořenými za ucelem analýzy ekonomickeho růstu v ramci neoklasických a endogennich modelů, existuji různe nazory na roli, kterou hraje lidský kapital při růstu ekonomiky. V poslednich letech zaznamenaly země středni a východni Evropy vcetně Ceske republiky ekonomický růst jako přinos z otevřeni ekonomickeho systemu.

Nonetheless, the literature has defied the extent to which these institutions have well-embraced their third mission of impacting regional development, thus calling for further approaches in examining the role of these institutions. This paper evaluates the various ways higher educational institutions have embraced their third mission of contributing to regional development. We sourced data containing information from 164 Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) located across the United Kingdom employing the propensity score matching estimation model. The results of the Average Treatment Effects (ATE) highlight the additionality effects of HEIs on graduate support, attracting inward investment, R&D collaborations and network facilitation. Surprisingly, our results e...
