Abstract: This paper presents an econometric analysis of the impact of collaboration with universities on the innovative output of firms We also illustrate the differences that emerge from robustness checks, based on different matching estimators and samples Our findings strongly suggest that university collaboration has a positive influence on the innovative activity of large manufacturing firms In contrast, there appears to be an insignificant association between university collaboration and the average service firm’s innovation output

Research collaboration in universities and academic entrepreneurship: the-state-of-the-art
TL;DR: The authors provide a critical overview of the literature on research collaboration, focusing particularly on individual-level collaborations among university researchers, but also give attention to university researchers' collaborations with researchers in other sectors, including industry.
R&D cooperation and failures in innovation projects: Empirical evidence from French CIS data
TL;DR: The second French Community Innovation Survey (CIS) indicates that 14% of RD collaborating firms had to abandon or delay their innovation projects due to difficulties in their partnerships, an outcome which we term "cooperation failures" as discussed by the authors.

Innovation on demand—Can public procurement drive market success of innovations?
Birgit Aschhoff,Wolfgang Sofka +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a survey of more than 1,100 innovative firms in Germany found that public procurement and knowledge spillovers from universities propel innovation success equally. But the benefits of university knowledge apply uniformly to all firms.

Sample Selection Bias as a Specification Error
TL;DR: In this article, the bias that results from using non-randomly selected samples to estimate behavioral relationships as an ordinary specification error or "omitted variables" bias is discussed, and the asymptotic distribution of the estimator is derived.

The central role of the propensity score in observational studies for causal effects
TL;DR: The authors discusses the central role of propensity scores and balancing scores in the analysis of observational studies and shows that adjustment for the scalar propensity score is sufficient to remove bias due to all observed covariates.

Michael E. Porter
- 01 Jan 1990
TL;DR: The Need for a New Paradigm as discussed by the authors is the need for a new paradigm for the competitive advantage of companies in global industries, as well as the dynamics of national competitive advantage.
Endogenous Technological Change
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that the stock of human capital determines the rate of growth, that too little human capital is devoted to research in equilibrium, that integration into world markets will increase growth rates, and that having a large population is not sufficient to generate growth.
Estimating causal effects of treatments in randomized and nonrandomized studies.
TL;DR: A discussion of matching, randomization, random sampling, and other methods of controlling extraneous variation is presented in this paper, where the objective is to specify the benefits of randomization in estimating causal effects of treatments.
