Knowledge Production in Nanomaterials: An Application of Spatial Filtering to Regional Systems of Innovation
Patuelli, Roberto; Grimpe, Christoph - 2008
Nanomaterials are seen as a key technology for the 21st Century, and much is expected of them in terms of innovation and economic growth. They could open the way to many radically new applications, which would form the basis of innovative products. In this context, it seems all the more...

Do University Based Regions Really Attract Outside Entrepreneurs: The Case of the German Biotechnology Industry
Engel, Dirk; Heneric, Oliver - 2005
The paper tests empirically the role of knowledge stocks to explain the regional distribution of Germany … only for academic founders inside as well as outside the region. In contrast, the start-up activity of non …-academic founders coming from inside or outside the region cannot be explained with knowledge intensity of the region. Our empirical …

Spatial model selection and spatial knowledge spillovers: a regional view of Germany
Klarl, Torben - 2010
The aim of this paper is to introduce a new model selection mechanism for cross sectional spatial models. This method is more flexible than the approach proposed by Florax et al. (2003) since it controls for spatial dependence as well as for spatial heterogeneity. In particular, Bayesian and...

Concubinage or Marriage? Informal and Formal Cooperations for Innovation
Keilbach, Max; Bönte, Werner - 2004
Based on a sample of German innovating firms that contains information on formal and informal innovation cooperation between customers and suppliers, we state that firms perceive informal cooperation as being more important than formal cooperation modes. We then investigate the determinants of...

Do Spillovers Stimulate Incremental or Drastic Product Innovations? Hypotheses and Evidence from German Establishment Data
Jirjahn, Uwe; Kraft, Kornelius - 2006
We estimate the determinants of various types of product innovation. Knowledge spillovers from rivals have a positive impact on incremental innovations. This impact is largely independent of the participation in R&D cooperations. Spillovers exert no such independent influence on drastic...

Formal and Informal Technology Transfer from Academia to Industry: Complementarity Effects and Innovation Performance
Grimpe, Christoph; Hussinger, Katrin - 2008
Literature has identified formal and informal channels in university technology transfer. While formal technology transfer typically involves a legal contract on a patent or on collaborative research activities, informal transfer channels refer to personal contacts and hence to the tacit...
