TL;DR: In the absence of ongoing technological improvements, economic growth can hardly be maintained [Barro and Sala-i Martin 2004] as discussed by the authors, and the close link between innovation and economic performance has become generally accepted.
Abstract: Economists widely agree on technological change and innovation being the main components of economic growth [Aghion and Howitt 1998, Tirole 1988].
