Abstract

The main purpose of this paper is to examine the innovation activities of nanotechnology organizations. Regression analysis is used to test the hypothesis in a sample of 270 UK nanotechnology organizations. The findings suggest that the innovativeness of the nanotechnology organizations is affected by organizational support, e-business and knowledge management. The organizations pursuing these strategic factors of R&D and commercialization are more innovative than conventional ones.
