A small number of countries, regions, cities, and localities are
powerful gatekeepers and generate the bulk of creative and
innovative ideas, while the majority is largely excluded. This book
looks at neglected, but emerging innovation centres analysed from
various spatial and organizational perspectives; ranging from
entire countries and regions to individual firms and small
neighbourhoods. Bringing together leading scholars from various
disciplines, it examines a variety of economic sectors including
biotechnology, agrotourism, and the food retail industry. The
authors employ various, often contradictory, concepts, ranging from
local buzz and the global pipeline, through an analysis of
collective learning processes to geographical embeddedness, using
both qualitative and quantitative approaches. The purpose of the
book is twofold: investigating changes occurring in the regions and
cities under transformation and attempting to find common and
unique mechanisms behind these changes. Consequently, the authors
shed light on the scale and scope of the innovativeness of selected
economic and social processes.
