Albanian companies are not innovative – Only 11.3% of them have implemented new technologies and services

It seems that most companies in Albania do not “embrace” the new, staying true to the classic methods of services. According to the latest Instat report on enterprise innovation activity, approximately 62% of surveyed enterprises do not carry out innovation activities.

The study was conducted for the 3-year period 2017-2019, where among others it turns out that enterprises operating in the industry sector are less innovative by 66%, while enterprises in the service sector are about 60% inactive in innovation.

Also, in terms of implementation of new technological equipment or innovative software, in this 3-year period, Instat shows that only 11.3% of enterprises have purchased machinery, equipment, or programming tools based on new technology that was no longer used by these enterprises.

However, what is noticed from the study of the Institute of Statistics is that the group of large enterprises with over 250 employees were more active in innovation, with 67.9%.
