Analysing the R&I productivity-inequality nexus

null

Expected outcome: Reduction of cost and enhancement of the quality and comparability of the data on firm and productivity dynamics. Better understanding of firm and industry dynamics for explaining aggregate productivity growth in European countries, as well as comparison with important non-European countries. Better understanding of the role of market conditions and policy frameworks on firm dynamics and productivity patterns leading to better measurement of their impact and an identification of the channels through which research and innovation policies could contribute on issues such as patterns of technology adoption and diffusion, social inclusion and job quality and contributions to broader environmental objectives. Reinforcement of the scientific community focused on the role of research and innovation in the EU economy based on macro-economic models and increased interactions between this community and policy makers in charge of R&I policy in Europe.
