The
project has produced two field work databases |
|
| |
|
|

WP

"CEEC Subsidiary Database"
|
• |
In
our so-called WP4 "Mapping the technology structure of branch plants
and technology integration of CEECs" , we developed a database enquiring
the relationship between foreign investors and their subsidiaries in Estonia,
Poland, the Slovak Republic, Hungary, and Slovenia with a view on technology
transfer.
The questionnaire was sent out to subsidiaries mainly in manufacturing
industry and most of the questions are deliberately subjective.
We have collected some 458 answering subsidiaries that are useful for
analysis. |

"CEEC Productivity Gap Determinants Database"
|
• |
In
our so-called WP6 "Firm-specific determinants of the productivity gap:
a matched pair-approach involving selected manufacturing firms in West Germany,
East Germany and CEE economies", we developed a database enquiring
a set of possible determinents of productivity gaps between West German,
East German, Polish, Czech, and Hungarian firms in four groups of distinct
manufacturing industries.
The questionnaires were sent out to randomly selected typical manufacturing
firms in four selected manufacturing industries.
We have collected some 1000 answering firms that are useful for analysis. |

"CEEC
Subsidiary Database" |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
This
database enquires the extent to and the conditions under
which foreign investment activities in Central East Europe actually support
the transfer of foreign technology and its implementation
in subsidiaries. |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
Field
work in this workpackage approached foreign direct investment subsidiaries
by way of a concise, two-page questionnaire equal for all
countries and yet translated into the languages of the respective countries. |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
In
each of the countries assessed, the group of the largest foreign
investment enterprises in Estonia, Poland, the Slovak Republic,
Hungary and Slovenia have been approached. |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
The
conceptual methodology of this field work follows the research on FDI
technology transfer and FIE development. |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
In
two waves of sending out over 2200 questionnaires, we were able to collect
458 filled-out questionnaires. |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
Number
of returned questionnaires: |
|
| |
|
73 FIEs from
Estonia |
153 FIEs from Poland |
|
| |
|
78 FIEs from the Slovak Republic |
85 FIEs from Hungary |
|
| |
|
69 FIEs from Slovenia |
i.e. 458 FIEs in total |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
Those
filled-out questionnaires form the basis of our "CEEC
Subsidiary Database" .

"CEEC
Productivity Gap Determinants Database" |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
This
database aims to determine the class of determinants of East-West productivity
gaps that originate from within the firms in the two regions of East and
West Europe. Such firm-specific determinants include the quality
of human capital, the intensities of marketing and other
management activities, etc. |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
Field
work in this workpackage approached selected firms in two size groups and
in fourmanufacturing industries by way of a concise, two-page questionnaire
equal for all countries and yet translated into the languages of the respective
countries. Here, firms in West Germany are compared to similar ones on East
Germany, Poland, the Czech Republic and Hungary. |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
In
three waves of sending out questionnaires, we were able to collect
nearly 1000 filled-out questionnaires. |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
Number
of returned questionnaires: |
|
| |
|
183 firms from West Germany |
180 firms from East Germany |
|
| |
|
182 firms from Poland |
164 firms from the Czech
Republic |
|
| |
|
at least 266 firms from Hungary |
i.e. 975 firms in total |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
The
firms originate from the industrial branches of investment goods
manufacturing, furniture manufacturing, cosmetics
manufacturing, and electrotechnicals manufacturing. |
