Spillovers in Product and Process Innovation : Evidence from Manufacturing Firms
This paper proposes a new empirical approach to assess the impact of knowledge spillovers on firms' productivity and demand. I consider a model where process innovations spillovers to other firms raise firms relative efficiency and technological diffusion of product innovations enhances firms' demand. By modelling knowledge capital as a function of own investment in R\&D and spillovers, I can c...
متن کاملFDI Knowledge Spillovers and Innovativeness of Chinese Firms
We investigate theoretically and empirically the impact of foreign direct investment (FDI) on the product innovation activity of Chinese firms. We extend the existing literature by examining a new type of spillover benefit, as well as new mechanisms by which knowledge spillovers occur. Theoretically, we extend the existing FDI spillover literature that mainly focuses on industry-level spillover...

متن کاملAre Knowledge Spillovers Driving the Convergence of Productivity among Firms?
This study evaluates the impact of knowledge spillovers on the convergence of productivity among firms. With the use of patent citation data, knowledge spillovers are decomposed into intraand inter-industry spillovers, and internal knowledge flows. The findings from this study suggest that each firm is converging to its own steady-state productivity growth rate, which is conditional on the firm...
متن کاملExternalities, Knowledge Spillovers and the Spatial Distribution of Innovation
The aim of the paper is to investigate the process of spatial agglomeration of innovation and production activities and to assess the extent to which the degree of specialisation or diversity externalities in the area may affect the innovative output in a particular local industry. The analysis is carried out thanks to an original databank on innovation and production activity across 85 industr...
