Résumé

O investimento em I+D é uma das verbas mais difíceis de manter em momentos de recessão económica dado o deferimento dos seus efeitos sobre os resultados empresariais. Não obstante, à luz dos resultados expostos neste trabalho, os seus efeitos são claros sobre o crescimento das vendas nos sectores industriais de média e alta tecnologia, bem como nos serviços intensivos em conhecimento. Além disso, a influência do investimento em I+D é intensificada nas empresas que apresentam os níveis mais elevados de crescimento. No entanto, os efeitos do investimento em I+D são ténues quando fazemos referência ao emprego ou aos benefícios operacionais das empresas
