- Articles and reports: 88-003-X20020036375Geography: CanadaDescription:
A theoretical link between innovation and economic growth has been contemplated since the late 1700s. Professor Ajay Agrawal discusses the significance of knowledge spillovers, the relation to innovation and growth, and the closely related concept of absorptive capacity. Clearly, the immense complexity of the issue of innovation and economic growth has increased scholarly interest in the topic.
Release date: 2002-11-01 - 2. Innovation in organizational settings ArchivedArticles and reports: 88-003-X20020036376Geography: CanadaDescription:
One can argue that every organization that provides goods and services is interested in innovation to maximize its competitiveness. The question is whether the organizational structure (the bureaucracy) as the means to organizational ends is conducive to innovations. This paper discusses Dr. Soma Hewa's insights on some of Max Weber's thoughts to understanding the role of innovation in organizations.

Rapid progress in skilled-biased technologies has increased the demand for skilled workers in all countries. The importance of skills for innovation and productivity in Canada is examined in this Industry Canada study.
Release date: 2002-11-01 - Articles and reports: 88-003-X20020026373Geography: CanadaDescription:
The manufacturing sector is looked upon as the source of innovation and technological change, but the sheer size of service activity in the economy means that the competitive advantage will increasingly depend upon this sector's ability to innovate and produce technologies.
Release date: 2002-06-14 - 5. Innovation in an evolving economy ArchivedNotices and consultations: 88-003-X20020026374Geography: CanadaDescription:
Statistics Canada's annual Economic Conference provides a forum for the exchange of empirical research among business, government, research and labour communities. The conference is also a means to promote economic and socio-economic analyses while subjecting existing data to critical assessment as part of an ongoing process of statistical development and review. This year's theme was Innovation in an Evolving Economy. At the May 6-7, 2002 conference there were 12 presentations, based directly on the analysis of Science, Innovation and Electronic Information Division (SIEID) data. These presentations were given by SIEID analysts, by Statistics Canada analysts in other groups, by facilitated access researchers and by analysts using published or commissioned estimates.
Release date: 2002-06-14 - 6. We have learned a great deal! ArchivedArticles and reports: 88-003-X20020016146Geography: CanadaDescription:
This, the first issue of 2002 presents an opportunity to recapitulate some of the findings that we have reported during the life of the Bulletin. In an interview, Dr. Fred Gault, Director of Statistics Canada's Science, Innovation and Electronic Information Division, discusses some of the findings on innovation, e-commerce, emerging technologies, Internet use, the telecommunications industry, R&D and commercialization.
Release date: 2002-02-15 - 7. IP protection practices by manufacturing firms ArchivedArticles and reports: 88-003-X20020016147Geography: CanadaDescription:
Canadian manufacturing firms fall into two groups: The first uses patents and trademarks as a part of successful innovation strategy consisting of regular R&D financed by R&D grants and tax credits introducing world-first innovations. These are usually large firms in the technology-intensive core sector. The second group includes firms of all sizes in all sectors that rely mostly on trade secrets. They typically transfer technology from abroad by introducing Canada-first innovations and rely on government information services more than on R&D grants and tax credits.

In recent years, comparing national innovative performances has become increasingly important as countries recognize the importance of innovation for economic growth.
Release date: 2002-02-15 - 9. The importance of competition for innovation ArchivedArticles and reports: 88-003-X20020016163Geography: CanadaDescription:
Firms have to be highly innovative to gain competitive advantage in today's increasingly competitive global market. The competition-innovation linkage is empirically examined using Statistics Canada's Survey of Innovation 1999. The evidence shows competition has a positive and significant impact on both technology invention and technology adoption.
