Companies based in science and technology parks in the Galicia-Northern Portugal Euroregion: Comparative analysis of their business, financial and innovation features
Main Article Content
Abstract
Science and technology parks are considered an essential tool of the Regional Innovation System. For this reason, this paper analyzes the business financial and innovation features of the companies based in science and technology parks in the GaliciaNorthern Portugal Euroregion. Companies based in Galician parks are older and larger in terms of turnover and employment, while there are more companies based in Portugal providing intensive services in high-tech skills and exportation. The level of patents is low for both of them.
