Regional Innovator Networks - A Review and an Application with R

Holger Graf

No 2017-016, Jena Economics Research Papers from Friedrich-Schiller-University Jena

Abstract: The article serves as an introduction to the empirical analysis of innovation or knowledge networks based on patent data with a particular focus on regional networks. I provide a review of the literature of innovation networks and how it connects to systemic approaches within the field of innovation studies. The SNA methodology is introduced by performing a comparative regional network study based on the publicly available OECD patent databases.
