  3. High (Over 20% of EU mean) Average Low (Below 20% of EU mean) Italy Creation of new knowledge • Source: EUROSTAT, R&D statistics, OECD (1998). • Data of 1998 for DK, D, F, I, FIN, UK, US, JP and of 1997 for all other countries, with except of Austria for which the most recent data is of 1993.

  4. High (Over 20% of EU mean) Average Low (Below 20% of EU mean) Italy Creation of new knowledge • Source: EUROSTAT, R&D statistics, OECD (1998). • No data available for Luxembourg. Data of 1998 for DK, D, F, I, FIN, UK, US, JP and of 1997 for all other countries, with except of Austria for which the most recent data is of 1993.

  5. Transmission and application of new knowledge High (Over 20% of EU mean) Average Low (Below 20% of EU mean) Italy Source: EUROSTAT, Community Innovation Survey (1994-1996). No data are available for Greece, Luxembourg, the US and Japan.

  6. High (Over 20% of EU mean) Average Low (Below 20% of EU mean) Italy Transmission and application of new knowledge Source: EUROSTAT, Community Innovation Survey (1994-1996). No data are available for Luxembourg, Spain, the US and Japan.

  8. High (Over 20% of EU mean) Average Low (Below 20% of EU mean) Italy Creation of new knowledge Source: EUROSTAT, R&D statistics, based on EPO data (1998).

  9. High (Over 20% of EU mean) Average Low (Below 20% of EU mean) Italy Human resources Source: EUROSTAT, R&D statistics, based on Labour Force Survey data (1998). Data for the US and Japan are not available.

  10. ITALIAN INNOVATION SYSTEM 2 Subsystems: small firms system: • Large population of SMEs operating in traditional sectors, mechanics and equipment supplier industries. • Innovation is incremental and originates from informal learning by doing, by using, by interacting. high-tech system: • Few small firms, a low number of oligopolistic players. • R&D expenses are low (both on firm basis and as % of GDP). • The national demand is not innovative. • Networking mechanisms among firms, university, research centres are still not well developed.

  11. COMMUNITY INNOVATION SURVEY • Technological change is mostly incremental. • The most important technological sources are perceived to be innovation related investments and R&D expenses. • The most relevant barriers are related to financial factors. • Large firms in manufacturing industry show higher % of innovative firms and better performace with regard to innovation intensity. • The sectors with higher % of innovative firms are the ones with high-tech opportunities: • CIS 1 (1990-92) CIS 2 (1994-96) • office machines 64.6% 67.6% • consumption electronics (ICT) 59.8% 59.2% • precision and optical instruments 50.3% 63% • machinery 48.9% 62.7% • chemicals 48.1% 61.8%

  12. PERCENTAGE OF PRODUCTION UNITS PER HIGH-TECH SECTOR Total 19,266, 3.3% of total production units in manufacturing Istat, census, 1996 Source: University of Pavia, elaboration on ISTAT data.
