• Doing More with Less: Innovation Input and Output in Family Firms (2016, background): “While innovation scholars have long argued that organizations ’ innovation output benefits from a highly educated workforce in a country (Furman, Porter, & Stern, 2002; Varsakelis, 2006), we show that this effect is even stronger for family firms.”
• Institutional determinants of R&D investment: Evidence from emerging markets (2019, background): “In this regard, Varsakelis (2006) and Krammer (2009) stated that investment in education, strong legal protection, stable political and economic situation are positively related with technological performance.”
• The relationship between inquiry-based teaching and students’ achievement. New evidence from a longitudinal PISA study in England (2019, background): “It has long been recognised that science skills are important for technological innovation (Varsakelis, 2006) and economic growth (Hanushek & Woessmann, 2012).”
• Corruption and Corporate Innovation (2019, unknown): “As such, there is a growing body of research examining the role of political institutions in innovation (e.g., Varsakelis (2006), Bhattacharya, Hsu, Tian, and Xu (2017), and Ovtchinnikov, Reza, and Wu (2020)).”
• The dynamics of national innovation systems: a panel cointegration analysis of the coevolution between innovative capability and absorptive capacity (2011, background): “By contrast, only a limited number of studies have empirically investigated the dynamics of innovative capability over time and the main factors that may explain its long-run evolution (Furman, Porter and Stern, 2002; Varsakelis, 2006; Filippetti and Peyrache, 2011).”
