COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF EU COUNTRIES AND TURKEY IN TERMS OF INNOVATION PERFORMANCE

Year 2015, Volume: 2 Issue: 2, 204 - 219, 29.06.2015

Abstract

The aim of this study is to compare European Union (EU) and Turkey in terms of innovation performance and to determine similar and dissimilar countries. To compare EU countries and Turkey, multidimensional scaling analysis and cluster analysis are employed.  In this study, innovation performance of the countries is measured by basic indicators such as number of patents, trademarks, industrial designs and R&D density, R&D personnel and innovation scores of the countries. Findings obtained from analyses support each other and according to results it has been seen that Turkey is in the same performance group with countries that are called as Modest Innovators. The performance of the Modest Innovators is well below that of EU27 and they belong to upper-middle income level.

Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı, inovasyon performansı açısından Avrupa Birliği (AB) ile Türkiye’yi karşılaştırmak ve benzer ve farklı ülkeleri belirlemektir. AB ülkelerini ve Türkiye’yi karşılaştırmak için Çok Boyutlu Ölçekleme Analizi ve Kümeleme Analizi kullanılmıştır. Çalışmada, ülkelerin inovasyon performansı; patent, ticari marka, endüstriyel tasarım ve Ar-Ge yoğunluğu, Ar-Ge personeli ve AB inovasyon puanı gibi temel göstergelerle ölçülmüştür. Analiz sonucunda elde edilen bulgular birbirini desteklemektedir ve sonuçlara göre Türkiye’nin İddiasız Yenilikçiler adı verilen ülkeler ile aynı grupta olduğu görülmektedir. Bu grup AB27 ortalamasının oldukça altında kalan ve üst orta gelir seviyesine sahip olan ülkelerdir
