Using count data models controlling for unobserved heterogeneity, this study shows for a large sample of R&D-active manufacturing firms in Flanders that collaborative R&D has a positive effect on firms’ patenting in terms of both quantity and quality. However, when distinguishing between...

Research conducted by university researchers for industry constitutes one of the main channels through which knowledge and technology are transferred from science to the private sector. Since the value of such inputs for the innovation performance of firms has been found to be considerable, it...

This paper empirically investigates complementarities between different sources of research funding with regard to academic publishing.We find for a sample of UK engineering academics that competitive funding is associated with an increase in ex-post publications but that industry funding...
