*p < 0.1; **p < 0.05; ***p < 0.01. Standard errors in parentheses. All coefficients from the logit models are presented as marginal effects, for ease of interpretation. Dummy variables for year and NACE sector are included in the propensity score estimation, but the output is not displayed here. The base category for firm size is micro; the base category for R&D intensity quartile is zero R&D; the base category for turnover is the lowest turnover quartile
