Abstract: In the modern economy, innovation is the main source of increasing productivity, economic growth, and social welfare. Furthermore, innovation is regarded as one of the drivers of economic growth besides the traditional production factors, such as capital and labor accumulation.

The result of this study shows that R&D expenditures, patent, and labor force participation have a positive and significant effect on economic growth in the 6 selected Asian countries.
