Perception des obstacles aux activités d'innovation dans les entreprises tunisiennes

Abstract

a systemic approach to innovation policies which take into account established complementarities. We show that the perception of barriers to innovation is less pronounced for foreign firms and more important for exporters who face competitive pressure, leading to a high perception of impediments related to the lack of information technology and the lack of qualified workers. To overcome the barriers to innovation related to excessive economic risks, high costs of innovation or lack of appropriate funding sources, our results suggest an important role of public and foreign capital. The lack of financial resources is also one of the main obstacles.
