description Emerging economies have introduced a number of policies to propel economic development. Policies are acknowledged as powerful tools to promote industrialisation and economic diversification. The feature of these policies are not only confined to established emerging economies but also mid-ranking emerging economies like Malaysia.

This study is exploratory since it seeks to find out how firms developed and enhanced their innovation capabilities in the presence of government policy. This study found that this policy initiative tends to affect the latter end of the innovation process (i.e. in particular in the exploitation phase) rather to the innovation process in general.
