Abstract

This article uses firm-level data from 27 transition economies to investigate whether the choice to directly export versus indirectly export plays a role in the innovation behaviour of exporting firms. We find that firms that directly export have a higher probability of introducing product innovation compared to non-exporters firms and indirect exporters.
