Innovation and Knowledge Creation in an Open Economy
This study of innovation - its intensity, the sources used for knowledge creation, and its impacts - is based on a comprehensive survey of innovation of Canadian manufacturing firms.

The study investigates how innovation regimes differ across size of firm and across industries. Owing to the high degree of foreign investment in Canada, special attention is paid to the performance of foreign-owned firms. The innovation regime of Canadian innovators is compared with results of studies of other industrialized countries. The picture of a typical innovator is a firm that combines internal resources and external contacts to develop a set of complementary strategies. The study finds that innovating firms depend not only on RaD, but also on ideas and technology from various other sources, both internal and external to the firm.... 27, 378a80, 383a96, 439a40 vs. innovators, 401, 422 Oslo manual 13, 17 (see also surveys of innovation: The European Community ... 74a5, 93, 147, 180, 256 a60, 265a321, 332a3, 402a3, 405a6, 429, 451a4 vs. trade orientation, 316a17 patent alternate strategies to, ... 104a5, 203a4 oversupply of, 9 partnerships, 93, 435, 442 (see also Raamp;D: collaboration) performer of, 103, 170a2 role in innovation, anbsp;...
