Resumo: Innovation is often seen as a critical driver of economic growth. This paper evaluates the impact of the Portuguese tax incentive to R&D (SIFIDE) on R&D investment (creation of innovation) and on firms’ survival (maintenance of innovation), using PSM and Difference-in-Differences methods. Results show positive effects of the program on both R&D investment and firms’ survival, especially for the services sector (R&D) and for small firms (survival). In addition, the hypotheses of full crowding-out and no additionality on private R&D were rejected, implying that the incentive does not merely replace private with public funding.
