“…These results do not coincide with Heidenreich (2009) or Vence-Deza and González-López (2008), who find that the wealth of a region does depend exclusively on hightech industries and KIS.…”

“…There is not a common opinion (Leydesdorff & Fritsch, 2006;Robertson & Patel, 2007;Bishop, 2008;Vence-Deza & González-López, 2008;Heidenreich, 2009; Center for Strategy and Competitiveness, 2009) about whether high-tech manufacturing sectors are the only relevant ones since their importance is usually associated with that of medium high-tech sectors, even though the presence of medium-tech industries is considered important for regional wealth.…”

“…Lastly, we find the analysis of the relationship between manufacturing and service agglomerations (Leydesdorff & Fritsch, 2006;, to which the relationship between agglomerations and wealth-measured by GDP per inhabitant-is sometimes added (Vence-Deza & González-López, 2008;Heidenreich, 2009). However, the relationship with creative industries has not been sufficiently explored.…”

“…However, although the existence of relationships between manufacturing and services agglomerations in their different definitions of high and low (Leydesdorff & Fritsch, 2006;Vence-Deza & González-López, 2008;Heidenreich, 2009) have been the focus of some analyses, the above-mentioned analyses have not been carried out to examine the possible relationship between manufacturing agglomerations, including both high-and low-tech industries, and creative industries. This paper attempts to fill this gap as at the present time we are not aware of the existence of any paper which focuses on this subject.…”

This paper examines the existence of regional agglomerations of manufacturing, service and creative industries, the relationship between these industries and the wealth of regions and their industrial structure. Through an analysis of 250 European regions, three important conclusions can be inferred from the results obtained in this paper. The first is that creative industries play an important role in the wealth of a region. The second is that the most creative regions are characterized by having more high-tech manufacturing industries than the rest of the regions although the number of low-tech manufacturing firms is similar. Lastly, the industrial structure of each region has a greater influence on regional wealth than the existence of industrial agglomerations. The importance of this paper resides in the fact that up until now no analysis has demonstrated that creative industries are the most important industries in regional wealth.

International Comparison of High-Technology Manufacturing and Knowledge-Intensive Services in the EU

-High-technology industries that apply the most advanced and cutting edge technologies are frequently analysed as an opposite to low-technology industries. Following a similar approach, services are subdivided by knowledge-intensity into two major dichotomic groups: knowledge-intensive services and less knowledge-intensive services. The aim of the research is to evaluate how these industries perform in reality, whether these industries have the largest value added and highest efficiency and productivity level as it is believed by theory and various policy documents.
