Drivers, Enables and conditions for Public Sector Innovation in European Countries

This study identifies the factors that influence innovation in the public sector in different countries. To do this, we identified innovation patterns in European countries and established the factors associated with such patterns. A cluster analysis was performed to group countries in terms of pub...
