| Summary: | This paper addresses the empirical analysis of determinant of innovations in
developing countries by using Generalized Methods of Moments (GMM)
estimating on panel data that consists of 52 countries. Innovation defined as a
process that attempt to try out new or improved products, processes or ways to
do. In order to achieve this phase, past studies address a few determinants of
innovations such as human capital, patent, trademark, regulation, stock market
and trade openness. This paper analyses the question: which factor will
contribute to successful innovation? By using GMM method, we estimate the
data at the difference and system GMM with one-step and two steps. The
results addresses that trade openness are highly significant in determine
innovation in developing countries. Thus our finding provides that free trade is
the most important determinant to encourage innovation activities in
developing countries. |
