The article also investigates the extent to which enterprises from chosen for the research countries engage in R&D channel in innovation process. Both the OECD and European Union support the idea of strong engagement in research and development processes. The results of investigation support the idea that countries with high development in research and development activities are more innovative and more open to new technologies and innovation.
