Análisis de la correlación entre sectores y barreras a la innovación

[EN] Innovation is becoming more popular in the last years and as a consequence, the population starts to be more aware about its effect. Innovation is surrounding us, is the future, something that add value, something that allow companies to be more competitive. Every time, more firms are interested on performing innovation activities in order to achieve some of their objectives such as increase turnover, reduce costs, increase their performance, etc. This concept, is also associated to economic growth, business survival, employment growth, social welfare and competitiveness. Thus, innovation is essential in this world in constant change and improvement. Because of that, it is unavoidable to find research that deal with this topic. Analyze innovation and its effect over companies is crucial to understand better this phenomenon which is taking more relevance. However, it has been observed that there exist some constraints that hamper innovation. As this last topic is not widely studied by economic sectors, this research is focus on determine barriers’ impact over Spanish firms while an evaluation of innovation activities is performed. Findings about which are those sectors who innovate more and which are the ones who must deal with a larger number of barriers is provided at the end of this project.[ES] En este trabajo se identificarán cuáles son los sectores definidos por el CNAE que presentan más barreras a la innovación y, por lo tanto, son menos innovadores. También se estudiará la relación presente entre ambas premisas y se corroborará que ambas variables son directamente proporcionales. Mediante el análisis de datos proporcionados por diversas fuentes como Eurostat, será posible determinar cuáles son las barreras actuales a las que estos sectores se tienen que enfrentar y cuál es el grado de impacto. Por lo tanto, se utilizarán diversas herramientas para la investigación como, por ejemplo, la técnica multivariante cluster con el fin de comparar la interacción entre los distintos sectores con las barreras analizadas.Troiano Puig, C.
