How to measure IC in clusters: empirical evidence

Abstract: Purpose -The purpose of this paper is to provide a strategic framework and tool to measure and value intellectual capital (IC) in regional clusters. Design/methodology/approach -A theoretical cluster strategic framework is presented and cluster fundamentals are discussed for proper model development. Design methodology was used to construct a model which achieves the aforementioned purpose. Findings -The paper provides a comprehensive model to describe, map, measure and value IC on clusters and systematically … Show more

“…Some authors such as Hervas-Oliver and Porta (2006) have already tried to provide a strategic framework to follow, describe, map, measure and value IC in regional clusters. However, the same authors acknowledge that the proposal did not include an exhaustive use of all available measures, and further studies are needed to broaden and re-adapt the framework.…”

“…However, the same authors acknowledge that the proposal did not include an exhaustive use of all available measures, and further studies are needed to broaden and re-adapt the framework. Hervas-Oliver and Porta (2006) understand that factors such as infrastructure, culture, innovation, strategic skills and entrepreneurial spirit can help in wealth creation. However, companies need to sharpen their networking strategies to overcome their territorial resource constraints and enjoy the benefits of collaboration for improved business performance or new product development.…”

“…However, we still believe that national attributes are potentially critical aspects for small business life. National attributes are factor endowments, as a way of describing special infrastructures and other factors available in the territory (skilled labour pool, universities, research and development centres, etc); related and supporting industries, underpinning and complementing core industry processes; demanding conditions, because a strong, trendsetting local market in quantity and quality help local SMEs to move beyond basic country advantages to search for competitive advantages (Hervas-Oliver & Dalmau-Porta, 2006). Figure 2 provides a synopsis of the national attributes that could be used to enable better creation of IC.…”

“…In this context, innovation, as a way to obtain a new or significantly improved product (goods or services) (OECD, 2005), is a promoter of economic growth, competitiveness and prosperity of organizations (Sillanpää & Junnonen, 2012). Some authors mention that innovations provide a competitive advantage to companies ((Taghizadeh et al, 2014); (Dereli, 2015); (Hervas & Dalmau, 2006)).…”
