Laburpena

I+Gko jarduerek enpresen errendimenduan eta hazkundean duten eragina aztertzen duen literatura amaitu gabe dago oraindik. Harreman hori, gainera, aztertu gabe dago enpresa berriekin lotutako literaturan. Aurretiko literatura oinarri hartuta, esan dezakegu I+Gko intentsitateak zeharka eragin positiboa duela enpresa berrien hazkundean, patenteen bidetik. Gure analisian EAEko berrikuntza ekosisteman dauden 87 enpresa berriri galdesorta bat egin diegu. Emaitzek adierazten dute patenteen bidez daudela harremanetan, modu positiboan eta esanguratsuan, I+Gko intentsitatea eta enpresa berrien hazkundea.
