Mobility of ideas for innovation: The role of inventor-specific knowledge flows
Koski, Heli; Pajarinen, Mika - 2015
Our data from 351 innovating firms for the years 2001–2012 generally suggest that patentable ideas are strongly linked to the mobility of individual inventors, or that the knowledge flows transmitted are sticky inventor-specific. In other words, the larger the knowledge pool of an inventor...
