“…In other words, knowledge may spill over from one firm to another. There is extensive research on knowledge spillovers in multiple contexts, such as technology transfer (e.g., Anselin et al 1997;Carlsson and Fridh 2002), innovation networks (e.g., Breschi and Lissoni 2001), technology clusters (e.g., Werker and Athreye 2004), and the evolution of industries (e.g., Malerba 2006). This research has shown that geographical proximity matters if knowledge spillovers are to occur.…”

What turns knowledge into innovative products? The role of entrepreneurship and knowledge spillovers

The knowledge spillover theory of entrepreneurship seeks to explain the fundamentals and consequences of entrepreneurship with respect to economic performance. This paper uses the knowledge spillover theory to explain different innovation outcomes. We hypothesize that a high rate of entrepreneurship facilitates the process of turning knowledge into new-to-themarket innovation but has no effect on the relationship between knowledge and new-to-the-firm innovation. Our results using European country-level and pooled OLS, fixed-and random-effects regressions show that a high rate of entrepreneurship increases the chances that knowledge will become new-to-themarket innovation. The findings highlight the importance of Schumpeterian entrepreneurship in the process of the commercialization of knowledge. We discuss the implications for entrepreneurship and innovation policy.

“…Regions are increasingly considered to be important sources of economic development and organization in a globalized economy (Scott 1995;Cooke 1997;Amin 1999;Werker and Athreye 2004;Malecki 2007), and entrepreneurship, and the innovation it has the capacity to spawn, is increasingly considered to be a key factor underpinning the future growth trajectories of regions (Reynolds et al 2001(Reynolds et al , 2002Fritsch and Mueller 2004).…”

Entrepreneurship, innovation and regional growth: a network theory

2015

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Despite the growing acknowledgement that entrepreneurship is an important driver of regional innovation and growth, the role of the networks in these processes has been less formally examined. In order to address this gap, this paper proposes that the relationship between entrepreneurship, innovation and regional growth is governed by a series of network dynamics. Drawing upon aspects of endogenous growth theory and the knowledge spillover theory of entrepreneurship, it is proposed that the nature of the networks formed by entrepreneurial firms is a key determinant of regional growth differentials. In particular, network capital, in the form of investments in strategic relations to gain access to knowledge, is considered to mediate the relationship between entrepreneurship and innovation-based regional growth. It is suggested that network dynamics should be further incorporated into theories concerning the link between knowledge spillovers, entrepreneurship and regional growth. The paper concludes with a series of theoretical, entrepreneurial and policy implications emerging from the study.

“…Verslo strategijų svarbą itin padidino susidomė-jimas inovaciniais procesais įmonėse nacionaliniu ir regioniniu lygmeniu (Werker, Athreye, 2004;Doloreux, Shearmur, 2013). Inovatyvią veiklą plėtojanti įmonė privalo į savo strateginius planus įtraukti naujų produktų ar paslaugų kūrimo programą, kuri įmonės darbuotojus orientuotų į ilgalaikius tikslus, būtų susieta su bendrais įmonės tikslais (Kleinschmidt ir kt., 2007;Cooper, 2008).…”

NUSERV modelio taikymas inovatyvios paslaugos plėtros proceseStraipsnyje nagrinėjamas NuServ modelis, t. y. paslaugos plėtros ankstyvoje stadijoje modelis, ir jo taikymo galimybės inovatyvios paslaugos diegimo procese. Aptariamas vidinės inovacijų plėtros procesas, pristatomi jį sąlygojantys veiksniai bei įvertinamas NuServ modelio tinkamumas inovatyvios paslaugos plėtros procesui. Šio tyrimo pagrindas -teorinė analizė, siekiant nustatyti inovatyvios veiklos plėtros ir naujų, į rinką įvedamų paslaugų, naujovių diegimo proceso sąsajas, aptariant NuServ modelio taikymą inovatyvios paslaugos plėtros procese. Antrepreneriška veikla remiasi greita reakcija į aplinkos pokyčius, stichiška elgsena, tačiau paslaugos diegimo stadijoje neatlikus giluminių tyrimų, inovatyvi paslauga plėtojasi itin sunkiai, neatneša pageidaujamo pelno, patiriami neplanuoti nuostoliai. Raktiniai žodžiai: inovacijų plėtros procesas, inovatyvios paslaugos plėtra, NuServ modelis.NuServ model for service development in the early stage and its application possibilities in the process of implementation of innovative service is presented in this paper. The authors also discuss the process of internal development of innovation, present the factors determining this process, and evaluate the feasibility of NuServ model for the process of innovative service development. This research is based on theoretical analysis, which aims at identifying the links between the development of innovative activities, new services introduced into the market and the process of implementation of innovations. The paper discusses the application of the innovative NuServ model in the process of development of an innovative service. Entrepreneurial activity is based on the rapid reaction to changes in the environment, spontaneous behaviour, however, the service deployment phase without abyssal research determines the slow development of the service, unexpected low budget and unplanned losses. Keywords: process of innovation development, development of innovative service, NuServ model. Jolita VVEINhARDT gintarė ŽIlAITYTĖ ĮvadasTyrimo aktualumas. Nepaisant, kad vadybos teorijos evoliucionavo, tapo lengvai pritaikomos ir orientuotos į verslo procesų valdymą, buvo sukurti įvairūs tyrimų modeliai, kuriais naudojantis galima surinkti rezultatus, antrepreneriai vis dar patiria nereikalingų išlaidų, susidarančių dėl pirmapradžių produkto ar paslaugos diegimo tyrimų trūkumo. Su šia problema ypač susiduriama inovacinėje veikloje, kai naujų, neišbandytų konkurencinėje aplinkoje, produktų ar paslaugų įvertinimą
