The effects of R&D tax credits on patenting and innovations (2012, background): “Like Blanes and Busom (2004), we include measures of the skill of the employees, lagged R&D activity, firm size and financing constraints as explanatory variables in the participation equation.”
Subsidies or loans? Evaluating the impact of R&D support programmes (2017, positive): “…have been awarded a European subsidy than in firms with a national subsidy, and superior in these nationally-subsidized firms than in firms with a CDTI loan (see Table 3).7 6 See, for instance, Blanes and Busom (2004), González et al. (2005), Heijs (2005), Clausen (2008) or Huergo et al (2016).”
Picking the winner? Empirical evidence on the targeting of R&D subsidies to start-ups (2012, neutral): “Looking at both regional and national support schemes that are targeted at private research and development (R&D), Blanes and Busom (2004) find that funding authorities pursue different allocation rules.”
Evaluating the impact of public subsidies on a firm's performance: A quasi-experimental approach (2007, positive): “Although some studies take the regional dimension into account in the concession of R&D subsidies, (Czarnitzki and Fier, 2002; Blanes and Busom, 2004) the literature on the evaluation of regional innovation policy is still scarce and offers little information on the performance of regional innovatio”
ASSESSING THE EFFECT OF PUBLIC SUBSIDIES ON FIRM R&D INVESTMENT: A SURVEY (2014, background): “, 2011) and that public R&D subsidies appear as a public policy instrument aimed at offsetting the negative effect of financial constraints on private R&D activities (Wren, 1994; Blanes and Busom, 2004; Hyytinen and Toivanen, 2005).”
Do public subsidies stimulate private R&D spending? (2008, neutral): “30 Blanes and Busom (2004) also analyze the determinants of participation in R&D subsidy programs using data from the same survey.”
R&D support programs in developing countries: The Turkish experience (2008, neutral): “These two studies used such control variables as size, royalties, 4 Blanes and Busom (2004) specifically analyze the decision to participate in R&D support programs. depreciation, profits, product diversification, etc.”
R&D subsidies and private R&D expenditures: evidence from Italian manufacturing data (2011, positive): “Since government grants are likely to be cheaper than funds from the capital markets, firms are encouraged to apply for public support even when private funds are available (Jaffe 2002; Blanes and Busom 2004).”
Innovation and exporting: evidence from Spanish manufacturing firms (2010, methodology): “As a baseline model to estimate equation (13) I use the Olley and Pakes methodology (1996).”
Innovation Subsidies: Does the Funding Source Matter for Innovation Intensity and Performance? Empirical Evidence from Germany (2014, background): “Blanes and Busom (2004) analyze the heterogeneity of regional and national subsidy programs in Spain.”
Demand-side vs. supply-side technology policies: Hidden treatment and new empirical evidence on the policy mix (2015, background): “…of extraneous variables, that is, unobserved firm characteristics that 1 Many other studies can be cited which can corroborate these hypotheses in a non quasi-experimental setting as well, such as Hussinger (2008) and Blanes and Busom (2004), which still control in various ways for selection bias.”
