In October 1996, Sheffield University Management School carried out two surveys of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in the UK, one of SMEs which had been granted a patent in 1990, and the other of a control group of SMEs. Both surveys were concerned with the information SMEs use for innovation, and both were part of a research project concerned specifically with the use that SMEs make of patent information for their innovation. The project: is funded by the Economic and Social Research Council and seeks to test the hypothesis that: the information that SMEs obtain from patent specifications makes a greater contribution to their innovation than the protection afforded by the patent system. |
