Abstract
The aim of this work is to analyse the spatial behaviour of innovation in Spain in order to explore the regional differences in the use of innovation capabilities in companies and determine, on the basis of such differences, which regional profiles are more efficient in terms of innovation activity results. This information can be useful in the design of innovation policies. The findings confirm the existence of significant differences among regions in the application of certain innovative activities, which also reflect major differences among regions in terms of these innovation activities.
