The analysis examines the relationship between the number of patents registered and the trend of performance indicators, such as turnover and return on invested capital (ROI), in a population Italian listed companies. Although the results do not identify a precise trend for the entire sample, regular behaviours appear: with the approaching crisis, a high reduction in the average number of patents and a worse performance are recorded. Nevertheless, with reference to these trends, no positive relationship between the two variables was identified.

Abstract
The analysis examines the relationship between the number of patents registered and the trend of performance indicators, such as turnover and return on invested capital (ROI), in a population Italian listed companies. Although the results do not identify a precise trend for the entire sample, regular behaviours appear: with the approaching crisis, a high reduction in the average number of patents and a worse performance are recorded. Nevertheless, with reference to these trends, no positive relationship between the two variables was identified.File in questo prodotto:
