Abstract

Innovation is a key driver in enhancing competitiveness of firms and fostering employment and job creation. This is the reason for the existence of a growing body of literature regarding how firms can improve their innovative practice and, more recently, how they can benefit from the advantages of digitisation. Moreover, many related statistical data is available for big companies, but the topic is relatively little addressed in the case of SMEs.
