HORTA, Roberto; SILVEIRA, Luis  e  FRANCIA, Heber. Innovations and exports: A new perspective for studying the Uruguayan manufacturing industry. estud.gerenc. [online]. 2020, vol.36, n.157, pp.402-414. ISSN 0123-5923.  https://doi.org/10.18046/j.estger.2020.157.3685.

The article investigates whether innovation activities, as well as the innovations carried out by Uruguayan industrial manufacturing companies, affect the probability that they are export companies. The empirical implementation is based on logit models applied to the micro-data from the Innovation Activities Survey of the National Agency for Research and Innovation for the period 2013-2015. The results show that to predict whether a company is an exporter, innovations in marketing, and internal research and development activities, and market research activities, are more important. An additional aspect of relevance arising is that the presence of foreign capital, as well as the existence of state support for innovation activities, also contributes to this probability.
