On 23. February 2011 the fourth report of the expert committee Research and Innovation
(www.e-fi.de )
has been handed over to the German Federal Government. Freek is one of two company examples which show that it makes sense to include small and medium-sized companies into innovation- and
sponsor related policy considerations as well. For even without doing fundamental, applied or experimental research, these companies achieve
considerable innovation success and thus hold economically important productivity potentials.
