Abstract
- This article uses Ordinary Least Squares estimation techniques on data from a large-scale survey to examine the effect of firms' innovation activities on their growth performance. In the article the authors use four measures of growth, namely, growth in employment, growth in turnover; growth in productivity and, change in the profit margin. These measures of growth are analyzed separately for manufacturing and service sector firms. The data that has been analyzed was collected as part of a wide-ranging survey of enterprise in Northern Great Britain.
