The small number of existing studies provides only fragmented and sometimes even contradictory findings, because they assume that non-R\u0026amp;D-performing firms show a \"typical\", homogeneous innovation pattern. Oliver Som challenges this assumption. Based on current firm-level data of the German industry, he provides pioneer quantitative evidence of five heterogeneous innovation patterns of non-R\u0026amp;D-performers. The findings impressively underline the need for future innovation research, -management and -policy to extend their view on innovation beyond the scope of R\u0026amp;D.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45274455113879,"sku":"9783834934918","price":7345.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9783834934918.webp?v=1769279971","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/innovation-without-r-d-heterogeneous-innovation-patterns-of-non-r-d-performing-firms-in-the-german-manufacturing-industry-9783834934918","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
