About the Book

This ground-breaking book offers a coherent theoretical analysis of contemporary industrial knowledge flow dynamics. Furthermore, it advances wide-ranging and varied empirical findings from international comparative research which demonstrate that knowledge cross-pollination, often from industrially unrelated business sectors, is now commonplace in the economics of innovation. This, the authors argue, represents the rise of an externalized ‘matrix’ of knowledge flow dynamics among firms and industries. The book also examines related economic governance research that reveals the catalytic role that leading innovation policy agencies play in animating knowledge flow dynamics, particularly at the regional level. The chapters address various sectors including food and drink, biotechnology, ICT, new media, the automotive industry and tourism. This insightful book will appeal to policy-makers, researchers and students with an interest in regional innovation, industrial economics and knowledge.

Review :
'This is a book of high interest for scholars, practitioners and policy-makers interested in innovation, knowledge flows and respective policies. A number of well-known authors investigate drivers of innovation, the dynamics of networks, and the role of platforms in both high- and low-tech sectors applying a framework of knowledge capability, knowledge phases and “worlds of production” amongst others. Investigated sectors include food and drink, tourism, the automotive industry, ICT, the media, KIBS, and biotechnology. Examples of private and public policy platforms illustrate the theme.’
