abstract = {This paper analyzes co-operative behavior of innovative firms in
Finland and Austria. We use data from the third wave of the Community
Innovation Survey (CIS 3). Descriptive statistics indicate that the rate of
innovators is quite similar in Austria and Finland, while the number of cooperating
enterprises is considerably higher in Finland. Econometric analysis
reveals that a number of factors that determine co-operative arrangements are
only significant in the one or the other country. We conclude that co-operative
behavior in the two countries is much more dependent on national factors and
much deeper rooted in the underlying innovation systems than the existing
literature may assume.},
