Using the latest available firm-level data from Germany, we analyse the product and process innovation activities and the innovation performance of firms with different levels of R&D intensity on both the descriptive and the multivariate level. Based on a holistic understanding of firm-level innovation, the input and output activities of non-R&D-performing and non-R&D-intensive firms are highlighted across different innovation fields.enbook article
