Technological innovation studies usually focus on the analysis of expenditures. However bilateral or multilateral relations are not discussed, even though it is known that in the microeconomic field, the relationship between R&D&I and competitiveness reveals complex and not reducible to a simple linear relationship. Numerous quantitative studies related to SMEs that do Research, Technological Development and Technological Innovation (R&D&I) exist, but if a company decides to start innovating, there are no references on structures, organizations, performances, etc. available in companies that already innovate.
