Statistics INMethodological note
A technological innovation, as defined in this survey, is a new product (good or service) or a slightly improved one introduced to the market, or a new process or a slightly improved one introduced to enterprise.
A non-technological innovation, such as is defined in this survey, consists of new organisational methods in the internal functioning of the company, of the workplace or in external relations, in addition to the implementation of new commercial strategies or concepts.
Expenditure on technological innovation is measured both in terms of companies with head offices in Catalonia, regardless of where the innovation takes place, and in terms of companies with innovation activity in Catalonia, regardless of where their head offices are located.
The innovation intensity measures the relationship between expenditure on innovative activities and the company's output. It is calculated as the percentage of expenditure on technological innovation with respect to the total turnover in the year in question.
Innovation in Companies Statistics follows the recommendations of the Oslo Manual, which contains the OECD's guidelines. The population scope includes companies with 10 or more employees.
