Abstract

Under the guidelines set out in the Oslo Manual (OECD, 1992) and under the co-ordination of Eurostat, various European countries conducted an innovation survey in the year 1992. The Oslo Manual and the Community Innovation Surveys (CIS) grew out of a concern to capture: (a) a wider range of innovation activities than R&D expenditures, such as the acquisition of patents and licences, product design, personnel training, trial production, and market analysis; (b) indicators of innovation output other than patents, such as the introduction of new products, processes and organizational changes, the percentage of sales arising from new products, the percentage of sales arising from products new to the industry, and the share of products at various stages of the product life-cycle; and (c) information about the way innovation proceeds, such as the sources of knowledge the reasons for innovating, the perceived obstacles to innovation, the perceived strength of various appropriability mechanisms, and the recourse to research cooperation.
