The phenomenon of immigration is defined as the relocation of a person or group of people across an international border or within a State. Migration of refugees, displaced persons, economic migrants, individuals acting for different purposes such as family reunification is also included in the phenomenon of migration, which is expressed as population movements in which people are relocated regardless of their duration, structure and reason (IOM, 2013). Innovation is defined as a process by the OECD as “transforming an idea into a marketable product or service, a new or improved manufacturing or distribution method, or a new social service”. The effects of migration, which has occurred for various reasons throughout history, on innovation gain more importance with the increasing globalization process.
In this study, the relationship between innovation and migration is tested with the panel causality test proposed by Emirmahmutoğlu and Köse (2011). Research and development (R&D) expenditures as an innovation indicator, the number of patents received in the information-communication sector, in the study where annual data of 2000-2018 of G-7 countries (Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, England and the USA) were used, The variables of the number of patents obtained in the biotechnology sector, the number of exports and the number of scientific articles in the information-informatics sector were used. As the migration variable, the foreign population entry variable by nationality was used. Empirical findings have revealed the existence of a causality relationship from immigration to some innovation indicators in the USA, Japan and France.
