Abstract(s)
O principal objetivo desta investigação consiste em identificar e analisar a relação entre
as barreiras à inovação financeiras, de conhecimento e de mercado e a propensão
inovadora das PME portuguesas no setor dos serviços ao nível de inovação dos produto
e processos. Também se pretende identificar e analisar a relação dessas barreiras sobre
a propensão de abandono de projetos de inovação através de uma análise empírica.
A análise empírica é baseada nos dados do Inquérito Comunitário à Inovação (CIS),
relativos ao pesíodo 2016-2018, utiliza-se uma amostra de 6182 empresas do setor de
serviços com um número de empregados entre 10 e 249. O método utilizado no teste foi
o modelo de regressão logística.
Os resultados mostraram que tanto para a inovação de produto quanto para a inovação
de processos, as mesmas duas barreiras foram identificadas: falta de crédito ou de
investimento privado e falta de acesso a conhecimento externo. Finalmente, no caso
das atividades de inovação abandonadas, surgiram quatro barreiras que levam às PME
de serviços ao abandono de suas atividades: custos elevados, falta de funcionários
qualificados na sua empresa, mercado com procura incerta para as suas ideias e
diferentes prioridades dentro da empresa. Os resultados também mostraram que
algumas barreiras à inovação atuam como motores da inovação de produto e processo e
que, por sua vez, nem todas as barreiras levam ao abandono de atividades inovadoras.
The main objective of this research is to identify and analyze the relationship between the barriers to financial, knowledge and market innovation and the propensity to innovate of Portuguese SMEs in the service sector at the product and process innovation level. It is also intended to identify and analyze the effect of these barriers on the propensity to abandon innovation projects through an empirical analysis. The empirical analysis is based on data from the Community Innovation Survey (CIS), for the period 2016-2018, using a sample of 6182 companies in the service sector with a number of employees between 10 and 249. The statistical method used was the logistic regression model. The results showed that for both product innovation and process innovation, the same two barriers to innovation were identified: lack of credit or private investment and lack of access to external knowledge. Finally, in the case of abandoned innovation activities, four barriers have emerged that lead service SMEs to abandon their activities: high costs, lack of qualified employees in their company, market with uncertain demand for their ideas and different priorities within of the company. The results also showed that some barriers to innovation act as drivers of product and process innovation and that, in turn, not all barriers lead to the abandonment of innovative activities.
