Market Openness, Trade Liberalization And Innovation Capacity In The Finnish Telecom Equipment Industry
Innovation relates to a process connecting knowledge and technology with the exploitation of market opportunities for new or improved products, services and business processes compared to those already available on the market. There is today great interest in understanding how governments can promote innovation and the benefits it brings, as evidenced by the discussions at the 2007 OECD Ministerial Council Meeting.
