Patents as quality signals? The implications for financing constraints on R&D
Czarnitzki, Dirk; Hall, Bronwyn H.; Hottenrott, Hanna - Düsseldorf Institute for Competition Economics (DICE), … - 2014
Information about the success of a new technology is usually held asymmetrically between the research and development (R&D)-performing firm and potential lenders and investors. This raises the cost of capital for financing R&D externally, resulting in financing constraints on R&D especially for...

Collaborative R&D as a strategy to attenuate financing constraints
Czarnitzki, Dirk; Hottenrott, Hanna - Zentrum für Europäische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW) - 2012
The ability of firms to establish R&D collaborations that combine resources, exploit complementary know-how, and internalize R&D externalities has been shown to be of high importance for the successful creation and implementation of new knowledge. We argue in this article that collaborative R&D...

Hottenrott, Hanna; Peters, Bettina - In: The Review of Economics and Statistics 94 (2012) 4, pp. 1126-1142
This study presents a novel empirical approach to identify financing constraints for innovation based on the concept of … they selected additional innovation projects, they must have had some unexploited investment opportunities that were not … profitable using more costly external finance. We attribute constraints for innovation not only to lacking financing, but also to …

Green innovations and organisational change: making better use of environmental technology
Hottenrott, Hanna; Rexhäuser, Sascha; Veugelers, Reinhilde - C.E.P.R. Discussion Papers - 2012
The literature on within-firm organizational change and productivity suggests that firms can make more efficient use of certain technologies if complementary forms of organization are adopted. This issue may be of even greater importance for the case of greenhouse gas (GHG) abatement...

Quantity or quality? Knowledge alliances and their effects on patenting
Hottenrott, Hanna; Lopes-Bento, Cindy - Düsseldorf Institute for Competition Economics (DICE), … - 2013
This study shows for a large sample of R&D-active manufacturing firms over the period 2000-2009 that knowledge alliances have a positive effect on patenting in terms of both quantity and quality. However, when distinguishing between alliances that aim at joint creation of new knowledge and...

Quantity or quality? Collaboration strategies in research and development and incentives to patent
Hottenrott, Hanna; Lopes-Bento, Cindy - Zentrum für Europäische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW) - 2012
This study shows for a large sample of R&D-active manufacturing firms that collaborative R&D has a positive effect on firms' patenting in terms of both quantity and quality. When distinguishing between alliances that aim at joint creation of new knowledge and alliances that aim at exchange of...

Policy-induced environmental technology and inventive efforts: Is there a crowding out?
Hottenrott, Hanna; Rexhäuser, Sascha - Düsseldorf Institute for Competition Economics (DICE), … - 2013
innovation is a crucial productivity driver, a potential crowding out of inventive efforts could increase the cost of mitigating …. However, we do not find negative effects on the number of ongoing R&D projects, investments in innovation-related fixed assets … or on the outcome of innovation projects. Likewise, for firms with subsidy-backed environmental innovations no crowding …
