Chapter Chapter 4 in Knowledge Flows, Technological Change and Regional Growth in the European Union, 2013, pp 103-130 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract While Chap. 3 focused on RIS and local or intra-regional drivers of the regional innovation processes, this chapter aims to investigate inter- and extra-regional knowledge spillovers across EU regions. Inspired by the previously discussed literature in Chap. 1 and by factual innovation trends in the EU presented in Chap. 2 , this chapter aims to investigate geographically and technologically determined knowledge spillovers among European regions and thus contribute to the understanding of the diffusion processes of innovation and knowledge in space. The inflow of R&D spillovers from extra- and inter-regional sources may be an important additional source of technological advantage for many regions.
