Using firm level data while controlling firm heterogeneity, we examine the importance of the government's role, organizational innovation and export incidence for product and process innovation. The empirical results show that government incentives, organizational innovation and export are significant in explaining innovative activities among firms. By separating innovation into product and process categories, the empirical evidence reveals that organizational innovation and export incidence are important for both types of innovation while government incentives are significant only for process innovation. Hence, government indirect supports via tax and non-tax incentives such as government technological support is found to have no effect on product innovation suggesting policy redesign to improve the capability of indigenous product development. This study also suggests policy implications for manufacturing firms with regard to sustaining technological upgrading and innovation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
