Deliverable 1.7 - Impact assessment of measures on SMEs (30th November 2011)

This document (254 pages) reports the results of

  1. the GPrix online questionnaire survey and
  2. the subsequent case studies.

An introductory section on the GPrix methodological approach discusses:

  1. the survey sample, how the various partners set about obtaining responses from a representative sample of both programme participants and non-participants, and initial data cleaning and transformation; and
  2. how a sub-sample of firms were selected for detailed case studies.

Thereafter, Section 3 (pp.16-54) reports the results from the survey, which includes descriptive statistics and analysis for each question. Note that the econometric analysis of the survey database is reported in Deliverable 3.3 and, in detail, in an Appendix to Deliverable 3.3.

Section 4 (pp.55-254) reports the findings of 61 case studies on SME innovation, the role of innovation support measures, and how innovation support measures can be made more efficient and effective.
