Big ideas: Innovation Policy

John van Reenen

CentrePiece - The magazine for economic performance from Centre for Economic Performance, LSE

Abstract: In the last CentrePiece, John Van Reenen stressed the importance of competition and labour market flexibility for productivity growth. His latest in CEP's 'big ideas' series describes the impact of research on how policy-makers can influence innovation more directly - through tax credits for business spending on research and development.
