| description | This paper analyses the weaknesses that characterize innovation in Romanian firms and
the main obstacles encountered in innovation. Using CIS7 data referring to innovative firms
operating in the manufacturing and services, our results reveals that the main obstacles faced by
them are conditioned by the composition of the innovation expenditures and are located essentially
within the sphere of lack of knowledge and technological opportunities and also the lack of internal
resources for funding and low capacity to attract funding from the financial market. These measures
can be the basis for the measures that can be adopted through government policies. |
