TLDR
In this paper, a survey of 1500 Russian industrial companies was conducted to understand the intensity of particular innovations and the interconnections between technological and managerial innovations, i.e., presence of foreign ownership, openness of local markets to international competition and inclusion of companies into large corporations to foster innovations.Abstract:
Based on the result of a survey of 1500 Russian industrial companies we not only clarified the intensity of particular innovations but also interconnections between technological and managerial innovations. We also determined the institutional factors that affect the intensity of particular innovations, i.e. presence of foreign ownership, openness of local markets to international competition and inclusion of companies into large corporations to/that foster innovations. At the same time, the rigidity of organizational structures and inertia of local production networks put serious limitation on radical product and technological innovations. The further development of Russian industries will largely depend on organizational flexibility of corporations and on increasing mutual trust within local business networks. Unter Nutzung der Ergebnisse einer Umfrage unter 1500 Industrieunternehmen werden nicht nur die Intensitat von spezifischen Innovationen, sondern auch die Zusammenhange zwischen Technologie- und Managementinnovationen nachgewiesen. Weiterhin wurden auch die institutionellen Faktoren bestimmt, die diese Innovationen beeinflussen wie das Vorhandensein auslandischen Eigentums, die Offnung des Marktes zur internationalen Konkurrenz und die Einbindung von Firmen in grose Unternehmen, um Innovationen voranzutreiben. Gleichzeitig erschweren rigide Organisationsstrukturen und lokale Produktionsnetzwerke radikale Produkt- und Technologieinnovationen immens. Die zukunftige Entwicklung der russischen Industrien wird weitgehend von der organisationellen Flexibilitat der Unternehmen und dem wachsenden gegenseitigenVertrauen innerhalb lokaler Handelsnetzwerke abhangen.read more
