RT journal article T1 Performance drivers of the R&D activities in the chemical sector in Spain: a balanced scorecard approach A1 Revuelta Bordoy, Daniel A1 Sánchez Ortiz, Jaime A1 García Valderrama, Teresa A2 Economía Financiera y Contabilidad A2 Organización de Empresas K1 R&D K1 performance drivers K1 Spanish chemical sector K1 innovation AB We have studied the drivers of the performance of the Research andDevelopment (R&D) activities in the chemical sector in Spain. For thispurpose, we have validated a Balanced Scorecard (BSC) framework forR&D and analysed the relationships between the Resources and InternalProcesses and the Commercial and Financial results of the R&Dactivities. The study has been undertaken using data gathered from atotal of 95 companies in the chemical sector in Spain. We employ themethodology of structural equations and specifically the Partial LeastSquares (PLS) technique. We have located the drivers that exert themost effect on each of the dimensions (Resources, Internal Processes,Innovation) that form the BSC for R&D and therefore ultimately affectthe performance of the company as a whole (Commercial and FinancialResults).
