Purpose: According to the open innovation literature, the main objective of this work is
based in the analysis of the external knowledge sources usage in enterprises
depending on the technology intensity, the organizational size and the sector nature
(industrial or services). In order to shape how the use of external knowledge sources
can be influenced by such contingent variables.
Design / Methodology: To achieve the aim proposed, we use extracted data from the
Innovation in Companies Survey performed by the Instituto Nacional de Estadística
(INE) in 2014. Several descriptive analyses are executed as well as the application of
the ANOVA analysis.
Findings: The results show us that the contingent variables presented have an effect
in the deployment of external knowledge sources. In such a way that the enterprises
more intensive in I+D make a wider use of external sources for the innovation than
those less intensive in I+D. We can also discern that SMEs resort more to the external
knowledge sources use. Finally, we can observe two different patterns when it comes
to companies that use external innovation sources in the manufacturing and in services
sector, being the companies that operate in the manufacturing sector those which
make a more intensive use of external sources. [-]
