Chapter 11 in Entrepreneurship and Innovations in Functional Regions, 2009, pp 297-322 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: In recent decades, the world has witnessed the emergence of a global knowledge economy in which functional regions increasingly play a role as independent and dynamic market places. These are integrated with other functional regions by means of flows of information, knowledge, and commodities. This contemporary and illuminating book provides a state-of-the-art overview of current research on innovation and entrepreneurship in functional regions.
