Abstract
This study explores the probability of a company cooperating in innovation, in particular with universities and research institutes, in relation to its technological and knowledge intensity, and its size. It uses data from the Community Innovation Survey (CIS) conducted in Spain in 2014. While size is the relevant variable to explain propensity to collaborate with universities and research institutes in the case of manufacturing firms, knowledge intensity better explains the probability of service firms cooperating with these institutions. Regional analysis is relevant for the appropriate translation of European innovation policies to specific innovation patterns of manufacturing and service firms.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Engineering and Technology Management (JET-M) is an international scholarly refereed research journal which aims to promote the theory and practice of technology, innovation, and engineering management.
The journal links engineering, science, and management disciplines. It addresses the issues involved in the planning, development, and implementation of technological capabilities to shape and accomplish the strategic and operational objectives of an organization. It covers not only R&D management, but also the entire spectrum of managerial concerns in technology-based organizations. This includes issues relating to new product development, human resource management, innovation process management, project management, technological fusion, marketing, technological forecasting and strategic planning.
The journal provides an interface between technology and other corporate functions, such as R&D, marketing, manufacturing and administration. Its ultimate goal is to make a profound contribution to theory development, research and practice by serving as a leading forum for the publication of scholarly research on all aspects of technology, innovation, and engineering management.
