Sažetak
Innovation is information and knowledge process and the investigation of the factors of various kinds of innovation activities could help firm to improve its innovation performance. Larger varieties of information sources enable firms to enhance its innovation opportunities which lead to sustain competitive advantage. Community Innovation Survey (CIS) tracks the record of the usage of different information sources as the key factors of innovation activities in European Union Countries. The goal of this paper is to determine the impact of different information sources to innovative performances in developed and developing European Union Countries. In this research we have used two dependent variables for measuring R&D internal and R&D external activities. Explanatory variables are: firm, suppliers, customers, competitors, consultants, universities, government, and conferences. Our results showed that most of the explanatory variables (e.g. firm, supplier, customers, institutions and universities) are statistically significant, while competitors have not been found as the significant information source in Croatia and in France.
