The innovation plays an important role in economic development. The governments try to stimulate innovation in different ways. One of the main used tools is direct support of private enterprises. However, due to limited public resources, more and more attention is given to effectiveness of such support. When evaluating effectiveness of the innovation policy implementation also raises the problem of "one size fits all" measures, whereby the effects of intervention may vary according to regions or sectors. In central Europe countries, most of this support is financed from structural funds. In this article, we empirically tested effectiveness of one such a measure – support of technology transfer to strengthen innovation processes in Slovakia. We evaluated the influence of the support on labour productivity and value added of different kind of sectors, comparing supported and non-supported enterprises. As methods, we use comparison of localisation coefficients and share on employment with given support. We found that distribution of support is not supported concentration of sectors. We suggest some policy implications from this result.
