Barbara Jankowska, Anna Matysek-Jędrych, Katarzyna Mroczek‐Dąbrowska · 2017 · Comparative Economic Research Central and Eastern Europe

Summary. This paper examines how national innovation systems convert innovation inputs into outputs across countries. Using the Global Innovation Index data from 228 countries, the authors find that Poland and Bulgaria fail to follow the expected pattern where higher innovation investment produces higher innovation output. Through detailed comparison of these two cases, the paper investigates why their national innovation systems underperform relative to their resource investments.
