The data are sourced from the 7th (1995-1997), 8th (1998-2000), 9th (2001-2003) and 10th (2004- 2006) waves of Capitalia survey. The approach is a trivarate probit analysis in which the dependent variables are R&D collaboration with a university, process and product innovation; the independent variables are firm, territorial and university characteristics.}, url = {http://ageconsearch.umn.edu/record/182812}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.22004/ag.econ.182812}, }
