Public sector R&D in India has recorded a negative growth since 1991.

R&D Public Expenditure, Knowledge Spillovers and Agglomeration

We disentangle the demand and productivity effects of public policy on industrial location (Commendatore, Kubin and Petraglia 2008, 2009) in a Footloose Capital model (Martin and Rogers 1995) with publicly financed R&D activities. Results are obtained under alternative assumptions on the intensity of knowledge spillovers (KS).

Using a unique firm-level database comprising the top European R&D investors over the period 2002-2013 and running LSDVC estimates, this study finds a significant labourfriendly impact of R&D expenditures.
