"Processi innovativi e piccola-media impresa: quale ruolo prima e
durante la crisi? Il caso della Provincia di Forlì-Cesena". This project focuses on the relevance of
innovation in small enterprises. In particular, it investigates the
role of innovation processes as an opportunity to face the
difficulties the world economic crisis has posed. By adopting a
longitudinal approach, this study explores the innovation processes
of a sample of small Italian companies located in the area of
Forlì-Cesena. Specifically, it examines the importance of R&D
activities, how these are carried out, the factors that might
stimulate or hinder the innovation processes and the role of
management control in supporting the latter. The results show that
innovation is perceived as a relevant factor in moderating the
effects of the economic crisis. In fact, the investigated companies
intensified R&D activities, reviewed their innovation processes
and modified the way they protect innovations. Besides, the role of
support of management control has been considered more
crucial.
