The paper analyses the effect of the subsidies policy for innovation of two Argentine institutions, FONTAR and SEPYME, in a sample of small and medium-sized industrial companies, during the period 2010-2012. The effect of the superposition of FONTAR and SEPYME treatments is considered using the methodology of propensity score matching. Evidence of additionallyis found when evaluating the individual impacts of the programs. However, no evidence of additionally or crowding out is found when the superimposed effect is considered. Finally, FONTAR’s actions seem to be more effective than those of SEPYME.
