| Abstract: | This paper investigates the 'importance' and 'awareness' of firm-specific competencies as determinants of technological innovation in the context of a European newly industrialised country. A literature-based portfolio model was developed including 17 established innovation- determining factors, related to the firm's technical, market, human resource and organisational competencies. The 'importance' of those factors as determinants of innovation in the Greek industry was tested with a survey of 105 manufacturing firms. Using correlation and regression analyses the author classified the competencies into 'major importance', 'moderate importance' and 'unimportant' ones. |
