Objective

Estimation of the impact on the productive activity of the companies that established cooperation contracts with the Eurecat Technological Center.

Methodology

There are two different situations:


STRATEGY A: Treatment through a control group defined in terms of company characteristics. It is intended to minimize the sample selection bias in estimating the impact of interest due to differences in essential characteristics of companies subject to treatment (under contract with Technology Center) and untreated companies (without contract with Technology Center ).

1) Stage 1: Definition of the control group

2) Stage 2: Estimation of the impact on the productive activity of the cooperation with the Technology Center


STRATEGY B: Treatment using control groups defined by ACCIO.

1) Stage 1: Descriptive analysis of the control groups

2) Stage 2: Estimation of the impact on the productive activity of the cooperation with the Technology Center
