We develop a composite indicator measuring the performance of national innovation systems. The indicator takes into account both "hard" factors that are quantifiable (such as R&D spending, number of patents) and "soft" factors like the assessment of preconditions for innovation by managers. We...

Deutsche multinationale Unternehmen sind im Durchschnitt weniger forschungsintensiv als Unternehmen in den USA, Japan und einigen nordeuropäischen Ländern. Der entscheidende Grund dafür ist, dass sie weniger in den besonders forschungsintensiven Sektoren der Spitzentechnologie und den...

Die Industrieforschung findet in Ostdeutschland überwiegend in kleinen und mittleren Unternehmen (KMU) und gemeinnützigen externen Industrieforschungseinrichtungen statt, während sie in Westdeutschland vor allem von Großunternehmen betrieben wird. Bund und Länder unterstützen die...

Industrial research in East Germany mostly takes place in small and medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) and non-profit external industrial research institutions, whereas in West Germany industrial research mainly takes place in large companies. The German Federal government, along with Länder...
