Abstract
Abstract 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 research is carried out on the example of the Czech Innovation Programme, and the analysis included 276 projects in the manufacturing industry. The study compares the turnover of enterprises one year before receiving the aid and two years after the granting. The analysis is performed regarding the size of companies, industries and regions. Results: When the companies are assessed at the median level, the largest turnover growth was found in the category of small enterprises. Regarding industry, the largest increase was recorded in NACE sections 22, 27, 26, 29 and 30. The lowest increase in turnover was recorded for enterprises in sections 21, 23, 24 and 28. Differences in turnover growth were also observed across regions. Conclusions: Providing support for innovation contributes to the growth of turnover. A larger share of public aid should be allocated to the category of small and medium-sized enterprises and knowledge-intensive industries.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
