This paper introduces dynamics in the R&D to innovation and innovation to productivity relationships, which have mostly … individual effects and idiosyncratic errors correlated across equations and that differ in the way innovation enters the … Community Innovation Survey. The results provide evidence of robust unidirectional causality from innovation to productivity and …

Using a unique panel data of Dutch innovation and financial variables we empirically investigate how financing and … innovation vary across firm characteristics. The study also tries to gauge the extent of market failure due to the presence of …, debt financing and innovation choices are not independent of firm characteristics such as age, size, and existing leverage …

This paper studies the dynamic relationship between input and output of innovation in Dutch manufacturing using an … unbalanced panel of enterprise data from five waves of the Community Innovation Survey during 1994-2004. We estimate by maximum … persistence of innovation input and innovation output, a lag effect of the former on the latter and a feedback effect of the …

In developing countries, innovation is to a large extent a matter of adoption of advanced technologies but also of …

Using Dutch data we empirically investigate how financing and innovation vary across firm characteristics. We find that … when firms face financial constraints, debt financing and innovation choices are not independent of firm characteristics …
