      abstract = {This paper explores the empirical association between  patents and various indicators of firm resilience during  the COVID-19 pandemic with worldwide firm-level data from  manufacturing industries. The study shows that  patent-intensive firms have a reduced probability of exit,  in particular if they are larger and if engaging with  complementary investments in R&D and other intangibles.  Additional estimates show that firm productivity has been  an important transmission channel. Taken together, the  results presented in the paper offer evidence-based  findings pointing to patents as an important potential  factor contributing to firm resilience during the COVID-19  pandemic. Policy insights are discussed.},
