500 |a"This paper examines how several factors contribute to innovative activity in the Canadian manufacturing sector. First, it investigates the extent to which intellectual property right protection stimulates innovation. Second, it examines the contribution that R&D makes to innovation. Third, it considers the importance of various competencies in the areas of marketing, human resources, technology and production to the innovation process. Fourth, it examines the extent to which a larger firm size and less competition serve to stimulate innovation--the so-called Schumpeterian hypothesis. Fifth the effect of the nationality of a firm on innovation is also investigated. Finally, the paper examines the effect of an industry's environment on a firm's ability to innovate."--Abstract.
