in WIFO Studies from WIFO

Abstract: This project was part of the WIFO-led Framework Contract and provided one of the background studies for the European Competitiveness Report 2013. It was conducted in cooperation with NIESR, wiiw, Middlesex University and the University of Perugia. The study investigated the impact of knowledge assets on productivity and technical efficiency in the EU, as well as their role in the process of knowledge transfer, originating both domestically and internationally. It covered the role of the institutional and regulatory environment and put special emphasis on the analysis of trends and performance within the EU, across countries and sectors contrasted with that of other major economies. It also explored the effects of the recent crisis on productivity and efficiency at the firm level.
