متن کاملSpillovers of Innovation Effects
The effects of process and product innovation are analyzed in a multisectoral framework. The effect of an innovation in any particular sector propagates throughout the entire economy.

As a consequence, an alternative viewpoint is obtained for the interpretation of the elements of the Leontief inverse and...
متن کاملInnovation, regional knowledge spillovers and R&D cooperation
We investigate the impact of knowledge spillovers and R&D cooperation on innovation activities in three German regions. We begin by estimating the knowledge-production function in order to test for interregional difference with regard to the efficiency of innovation activities. In a second step, we analyze the contribution of spillovers from R&D effort of other private firms and of public resea...
