Abstract: Abstract As discussed in the previous chapter, high-quality and efficient territorial capital assets, together with high regional attractiveness, are the elements on which regional competitiveness is based. Territorial attractiveness therefore matters for regional growth, and this applies to all regions, regardless of their exposure to globalization processes. The continuous inflows of competitive and innovative economic factors, and mainly entrepreneurship and financial capital, not only from other regions of the same country but also from outside the country’s borders, make the difference in explaining regional growth differentials.
