Survey on the Innovation Capabilities of Service SMEs in Ireland

The RIKON Group located at Waterford Institute ofTechnology is currently conducting an important National Study which aims to assess the innovation capabilities of service SMEs in Ireland. The findings will have significant implications for helping SME managers/owners understand the nature of service innovation in Ireland. Furthermore, the study will enable service innovation researchers at WIT to develop a practical management toolkit that will assist SME owners and managers to measure their level of innovativeness and identify the most effective mechanisms to help upgrade their innovative mode.

The survey is targeted at senior managers / owners of SME service firms in Ireland and should take no longer than 15-20 minutes to complete.  To participate in the survey please click here. All participants who complete the questionnaire will receive a substantial business report summarising the key findings emerging from the research that will enable SMEs to benchmark themselves against their industry competitors.
