examining inter-relationship between knowledge spillovers from imports and inward FDI. Moreover, human capital is added to the … discussion as one of the appropri- ability conditions for knowledge spillovers. However, in comparison to most studies that rely …, a strong complementary rela- tionship is found between knowledge spillovers through the channels of imports and inward …

disentangle differential effects of team heterogeneity by modeling two separate heterogeneity dimensions, namely knowledge scope … and knowledge disparity. Analyzing unique data on functional experiences of the members of 337 start-up teams, we find … support for our contention of team heterogeneity as a two-dimensional concept. Results suggest that knowledge disparity …

assessing how the structure of actor-based knowledge networks is affected by such policies. We continue in that direction and … analyze how technology-based regional knowledge spaces structurally respond to the introduction of a cluster policy. Taking … the example of the German BioRegio contest, we examine how such knowledge spaces in winning and non-winning regions …
