This paper estimates the effect of heterogeneous university funding stemming from the German Excellence Initiative on a regional firm’s probability to innovate by using a multi-valued two-way fixed effects difference-in-differences model. The estimations show that funding an additional...

The study aims at estimating the effects of support for research and development and innovation from the European Union (EU) budget for boosting innovation in European enterprises, using input, output, and behavioral additionality approach. The study is based on microdata of the Community...

We implement an experimental design based on a duopoly game in which subjects choose whether to cooperate in Research and Development (R&D) activities. We first conduct six experimental markets that differ in both the levels of knowledge spillovers and the intensity of competition. Consistently...

Foreign-owned subsidiaries make significant contributions to national Research and Development (R&D) in many host countries. Policymakers often support subsidiaries through R&D grants and R&D tax credits. A key objective of this funding is to leverage R&D-driven firm performance benefits for the...

The effects of government R&D subsidies can vary across recipient firms, depending on the various characteristics of a firm, potentially including the firm's accounting information quality (AIQ). It has been well recognized that high AIQ helps to reduce information asymmetry between investors...

Weltweit werden immer größere Anstrengungen zum Schutz und zur Verbesserung von Umwelt und Klima unternommen. Diese Entwicklung schlägt sich nicht nur in wachsenden Kosten und Investitionen für Umweltschutz nieder, sondern hat auch zu einer wachsenden Bedeutung der internationalen...

Research and development (R&D) tax credits are widely employed among the OECD countries to promote business sector investments in innovation. The implementation of R&D tax credit schemes, however, varies across countries. The empirical research on the effectiveness of R&D tax incentives suggests...

This paper uses Korea's internal data on R&D programs to analyze how the receiving of R&D impacts the amount of subsequent external financing for technological innovation received by R&D firms. We address sample selection and endogeneity issues that arise when estimating the impact of R&D policy...

Spain is at the bottom in the absorption of European funds, and there is a need to research why. This paper starts from the idea that the problem could, among other issues, be related to the ineffectiveness of administrative communication, both in terms of transparency and dissemination. These...

Forschungsqualität sowie das Ermöglichen dieser kann dreidimensional begriffen werden: (a) Fragestellungen und Methoden der Erkenntnisproduktionen, (b) apparative, infrastrukturelle und sonstige ressourcenspezifische Ausstattungen und (c) die Gestaltung der organisatorischen Kontexte. Letztere...

Current literature on the impact assessment of government innovation subsidies is mainly empirical driven and lacks an overarching theoretical model to explain the conditions under which government subsidies create positive additionalities on private R&D investment. In this paper, we present a...

There have been many important innovations in the landscape of vaccine development for neglected and emerging infectious diseases, such as the launch of public-private product development partnerships (PDPs). However, there is still a gap in funding the development of such vaccines, especially...

Universities play a crucial role in new knowledge production that is considered as key driver of economic growth. Hence, the support of university research is essential, usually provided by the public sector. This article presents an evaluation of small grants of universities through examining...

Background: Innovation policy supports innovation in companies, as it is crucial for economic, social and environmental development. Objectives: The research aims to verify whether companies that have received public support for innovation are experiencing turnover growth. Methods/Approach: The...

This paper evaluates whether the relative concentration of funding for small, research-oriented firms in a small number of high-tech industries is related to the differences across industries in the level of appropriability or capital constraints facing small firms. To do so, we exploit a novel...

This paper examines the U.S. government’s intramural research and development efforts over a 40-year period, drawing together multiple human capital, government spending, and patent datasets. The U.S. Federal Government innovates along four dimensions: technological, organizational,...
