Abstract

The article analyzes factors stimulating firms’ capacity for marketing innovation in terms of the design and packaging of goods and services.

The results of the logistic regression show that R&D activities relating to internal R&D activities; acquisition of machinery, equipment, and software; acquisition of other external knowledge; and carrying out other procedures—plus the factor of marketing activities—influence Portuguese firms’ tendency to innovate in marketing. Keywords: Marketing Innovation, Logit Model, CIS
