Abstract

We propose that there exists a virtuous circular relationship between firm exports and firm innovation whereby they drive and reinforce each other. We analyse two key elements which support this relationship, namely policy initiatives and firm-level strategies for innovation and exports. We use data from Canadian innovation surveys, and the two-stage least squares technique to explore the interplay between innovation and exports. Our results confirm our hypothesis; however, the effect of policies and firm-level strategies are not uniform or predictable across sectors and time.
