Abstract

This paper examines the relationship between government-funded R&D grants in the US and pharmaceutical firm innovation. We find a positive and robust relationship between grant receipt, future patents, and medical innovations. The strength of the relationship between R&D grants and pharmaceutical innovation is attenuated by firm lobbying but strengthened by industry competition, geographic dispersion, and leverage. Investors recognize the unequal value added by grant receipt. R&D grant receipt also impacts future financial performance and sales growth. Our results indicate that the relationship between R&D and innovation is more nuanced than previously identified.

研发补助金和医疗创新
本文研究了美国政府资助的研发补助金与制药企业创新之间的关系。我们发现,获得资助、未来专利和医药创新之间存在稳健的正相关关系。企业游说削弱了研发补助金与医药创新之间关系的强度,而行业竞争、地域分散和杠杆作用则加强了这种关系的强度。投资者认识到了获得研究与开发补助金所带来的不平等增值。研发补助金的获得也会影响未来的财务业绩和销售增长。我们的研究结果表明,研究与开发和创新之间的关系比以前所发现的更加微妙。
