From the findings of the SME research conducted by the European Union, the actual status and problems of innovation activities in SME operations are mainly reflected in the following aspects:
From the self-assessment of enterprises on innovation activities, the evaluation of large-scale enterprises in their own innovation activities is higher than that of SMEs on an average level, and 52.5% of large enterprises believe that their innovation activities exceed the average level, while only SMEs only have 44%. .1%. Small and medium-sized enterprises think that their ratio of "inadequate" and "very inadequate" in acquiring advanced technological information is 16.6%, which is higher than the 8.9% of large-scale enterprises.
Research shows that the views of micro-enterprises, small-sized enterprises, and medium-sized enterprises on business management policies are basically the same. The “fight for survival†and “growth†factors are closely related to the size of the company. The former factor is negatively related to the size of the company. That is, the micro-enterprises are plagued by the existence of a considerable situation, and “growthâ€. This factor is positively related to the size of the company. Large-scale SMEs are more concerned with the performance of growth in their operations than small-scale SMEs. Among all options, “growth†is the highest percentage of choices, with 29% of micro-enterprises, 30% of small companies, and 38% of medium-sized companies taking growth as the core of business operations; and “innovation†options The proportion is the lowest, among which the proportion of medium-sized enterprises is slightly higher than that of micro- and small-scale enterprises.Thus, SMEs do not pay enough attention to innovation activities. This is not only related to their industry level, but also to their own funds and manpower. The degree of ownership of capital is related.
Since the 1990s, technological innovation has become a key driving force for growth in all industries, but innovation results have clearly presented a tilt to large-scale enterprises. Although a number of small-scale enterprises with technology-oriented development have emerged in EU countries, However, it cannot be denied that the innovative ability of SMEs is generally weak. From the perspective of the practice of technological innovation by SMEs, SMEs often lack understanding of the situations and dynamics related to the technological, economic and market trends associated with innovative projects, or lack of data and information that are sufficient to explain the opportunities and problems involved in the research projects. . This situation is related to the low level of education of employees of SMEs and the low ownership of communication equipment. In such an environment, it is difficult for SMEs to have a definite estimate of the costs and benefits of investment in innovation projects, leading to hindrance in the development of their innovation activities.
The surveyed SME operators believe that the biggest obstacle to innovation in the past two years of operation comes from the “lack of skilled workforce.†This barrier is particularly prominent for small and medium-sized companies with more than 10 employees. For microenterprises below 10, "lack of access to financing" is the main obstacle. Compared with the results of the enterprise survey in 1999, the proportion of the “lack of skilled labor force†rose fastest, and micro enterprises rose by 150%, higher than medium and small enterprises. At the same time, the proportions of "access to financing opportunities" and "administrative regulations" have also increased. It can be seen that the human factor is very critical in the development process of innovation activities. The lack of talent is an important reason why the pace of SME innovation is hindered. For large companies, attracting new talent to promote corporate innovation has always been a prominent issue.
SMEs lack the knowledge and talent resources necessary for innovation activities in their internal resource structure, and they also face difficulties in supporting external networks related to innovation. Not only that, the development of technology-oriented SMEs has been hindered by many institutional factors, and they have also been forced to pay the corresponding costs. The survey shows that 49% of technology-oriented SMEs believe that the laws and regulations related to patent protection constitute obstacles to their investment in innovation activities.
The survey results also show that the most urgent need for SMEs to promote innovation activities is human resources. According to the survey, 46.1% of SMEs believe that finding the right talent or advancing the corresponding flow of talent is the biggest problem to meet the needs of the enterprise. The importance of the issue is more than the need for customers with innovative needs or access to related markets. Aspect factors. This also reflects from one aspect the characteristics of the supply-demand creation in the international market in the information age. Enterprises must have the ability to promote the innovation process before they can form the basis for realizing the value of the innovative product market.
