Regional Technological Differences: The Case of Southern European Union

Sotiris Karkalakos

The Journal of Technology Transfer, 2005, vol. 30, issue 3, 315-326

Abstract: This paper examines the spatial spillover effects and the productivity rate of patents in southern European Union. It provides a systematic analysis of the relationship between productivity of patents and the factors that generate economically useful new technological knowledge. An applied spatial econometric framework is employed since this approach is particularly useful in the study of the spatial patterns of patents’ productivity, at the lowest possible levels of spatial aggregation.
