{"title":"International Cooperation on Innovation: Empirical Evidence for German and Portuguese Firms","authors":"T. Schmidt, Pedro Faria","doi":"10.2139/ssrn.1027870","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.2139/ssrn.1027870","url":null,"abstract":"In this paper we investigate the factors that lead firms to cooperate with partners from foreign countries on innovation activities. Portuguese and German data from the harmonised Community Innovation Survey (CIS III) allow us to compare innovation cooperation behaviour of private firms in the two countries. Using a bivariate probit model, we show that the characteristics of firms cooperating with foreigners in both countries are quite similar. International activities other than cooperation, firm size and the importance of protection methods for knowledge have a positive influence in both countries on the decision to cooperate with foreign partners. Some differences remain, however: In Germany, exporters are more likely to cooperate with foreign partners than non-exporters, whereas in Portugal this is not the case.","PeriodicalId":338013,"journal":{"name":"ERPN: Innovation (Economic) (Sub-Topic)","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121201972","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
{"title":"Building Innovation from Grassroots: Learning from Grassroots Innovation Movement in India, China, and Brazil","authors":"Y. Prasetyo","doi":"10.2139/ssrn.2931600","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.2139/ssrn.2931600","url":null,"abstract":"Grassroots innovation is growing and spreading throughout the world as a social innovation in the elaboration of modern and traditional knowledge, formal and non-formal innovation, as well as individual and institutional innovators. Grassroots Innovation shows how poor and marginalized groups are able to develop creativity and sustainable innovation in solving problems around them. Therefore, it is important to learn about a variety of grassroots innovation movement in various parts of the world as a reflection of the strategy of sustainable community development. This paper summarizes the experience of grassroots innovation movements in some countries, such as India, China, and Brazil through the study of the current literature. Learning from Grassroots Innovation Movement will give an overview of the opportunities, challenges, and issues in the context of building a community from the grassroots.","PeriodicalId":338013,"journal":{"name":"ERPN: Innovation (Economic) (Sub-Topic)","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124080078","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
