ON THE ROLE OF PROCESS INNOVATIONS ON SMES PRODUCTIVITY GROWTH?
Mañez, Juan A.; Rochina-Barrachina, María E.; … - Departament d'Estructura Econòmica, Facultad de Economía - 2011
In this paper we explore in depth the effect of process innovations on total factor productivity growth for small and medium enterprises (SMEs), taking into account the potential endogeneity problem that may be caused by self selection into these activities. First, we analyse whether the ex-ante...

Convergence of firm-level productivity, globalisation, information technology and competition: evidence from France
Chevalier, Paul-Antoine; Lecat, Rémy; Oulton, Nicholas - London School of Economics (LSE) - 2009
Studies of firm-level data have shown that there is a huge dispersion of productivity across firms even when industries are narrowly defined. So there is a significant opportunity for the least productive firms to catch up to the most productive. The formers’ convergence could therefore...
