Do spillovers stimulate incremental or drastic product innovations? : Hypotheses and evidence from German establishment data
Jirjahn, Uwe (contributor); Kraft, Kornelius (contributor) - 2006
We estimate the determinants of various types of product innovation. Knowledge spillovers from rivals have a positive impact on incremental innovations. This impact is largely independent of the participation in R&D cooperations. Spillovers exert no such independent influence on drastic...
