Knowledge Production in European Union: Evidence from a National Level Panel Data

Hugo Pinto

MPRA Paper from University Library of Munich, Germany

Abstract: The knowledge production function framework is used to understand how territories transform specific inputs into knowledge outputs. This article focuses knowledge production function estimation at European Union with twenty five member-states using a data panel analysis between 1999 and 2003. The importance of different variables in knowledge production is tested. The econometric results give relevant insights for EU decision-makers and the creation of a more integrated European Research Area and innovation cooperation within Europe.
