Firm Growth and the Spatial Impact of Geolocated External Factors – Empirical Evidence for German Manufacturing Firms
Duschl, Matthias; Schimke, Antje; Brenner, Thomas; … - Volkswirtschaft Abteilung, Fachbereich … - 2011
In this paper the relationship between firm growth and external knowledge sources, such as related firms and universities, is studied. The spatial characteristics of these relationships are examined by geolocating firms into a more realistic relational space using travel time distances and using...

Because of the heterogeneity of industries …, different agglomeration mechanisms, or the way how industrial clusters are identified and spatially delimited, the conclusions … separately. Therefore, for each firm a micro-geographically defined agglomeration measure is calculated, which is free of the …
