Measuring the impact of publicly funded open innovation programmes: the case of Data Market Services Accelerator

One of the current goals of the European Commission is to stimulate the development and uptake of data and AI technologies in the economy. Substantial funding has been invested in programmes that help startups and small-medium enterprises (SMEs) to assimilate the latest technical and regulatory trends. In order to assess the efficacy and impact of such initiatives, their specific social and economic objectives must be taken into consideration. Our paper proposes a generalisable mixed-methods approach for assessing the impact of publicly funded innovation programmes across multiple dimensions, including their effect on the market, fundraising capabilities of companies, innovation, and socio-economic aspects. We apply this framework to evaluate the recent performance of the Data Market Services (DMS) Accelerator, a current programme funded by the European Commission. In addition to assessing how DMS has been able to meet its objectives, our examination alerts other similar programmes of the challenges in assessing specific outcomes such as standardisation and long-term legal strategy in the fields of data innovation.

The Internet has a significant influence on poverty alleviation and economic growth. Internet involvement in small-medium enterprises (SMEs) has the opportunity to create a better level of welfare. Using data from the fifth wave of the Indonesian Family Life Survey (IFLS), this study aims to analyze the impact of internet utilization on household welfare among two groups, household enterprises with internet use for business and without internet use for business. The results of the Propensity Score Matching (PSM) method mention that household enterprises with internet for business purposes have higher household per capita expenditure, food consumption, and non-food expenditure than household enterprises without internet use.

The Impact

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to boost the internationalization of companies by implementing key factors that will help them to increase their exports in a context of an emerging country such as Mexico, where very few small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) achieve internationalization. Design/methodology/approach According to different theories on the internationalization of companies, five independent variables were designed to measure their effect on the export performance using a multiple regression model on a sample of 95 Mexican industrial SMEs. In this context, the objective of this study is to investigate the impact of the product price, product quality, installed capacity, innovation capacity and financial capacity on the export performance of SMEs; and to identify the factors that are more signiﬁcant. Findings The results indicate that innovation has a positive relationship, while the price of the product has a negative relationship with the internationalization of small- and medium-sized enterprises, showing that there is a possibility of overemphasizing the role of both variables in export performance of SMEs, at least in the Mexican context. The rest of the variables were not statistically significant to the generated model, perhaps because they are implicitly considered at the time of exporting and entering international markets. Originality/value These results will help companies to focus their efforts on obtaining resources to maintain and expand exports and find new opportunities in foreign markets to grow. They also show that companies can implement different types of internationalization strategies with the study’s variables to achieve better performance.
