    Description:

    Innovative firms cite industry associations as important sources of ideas more frequently than they cite federal government research laboratories or universities according to data from Statistics Canada's 2003 Innovation Survey.

Without this understanding, policy makers may overlook an important class of actual and potential innovation enablers.
