Empirical studies on the link between innovation, exports and market structure
| Authors | Sample | Methodology | Model | Main results |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Barrère et al. (2022) | Uruguayan Manufacturing Firms (2010–2015) | The relation between innovation and export for a firm located in a developing country to the destination (developed or developing country) | Probit regression model | Innovation precedes exports when the export market is a developing country |
| Firms are not able to adapt with both innovation and export strategies when the export market is a developed country | ||||
| Aghion et al. (2018) | French Manufacturing firms (1994–2012) | Exporters vs. non-exporters | Linear OLS specification | A shock in export demand has a positive impact on innovation in high productivity firms whereas it might negatively impact innovation in low productivity ones |
| Caldera (2010) | Spain, 1990–2000 | Exporters vs. non-exporters | Probit model | Innovation and productivity enhances the probability of exporting |
| Becker and Egger (2013) | Germany 1994–2004 | Exporters vs. non-exporters | Matching techniques | Product innovation increases the propensity to export |
| Sanyal (2004) | OECD countries, 1980–1998 | Bilateral exports | Linear OLS specification | Innovation influences bilateral trade. The effect is higher in the high-technology sectors |
