“…The network metaphor has become highly prevalent within the economic geography and regional economic development literature, with a vast body of work on notions such as global production networks (Olds and Thrift, 1997;Henderson et al;Coe et al, 2004; innovative milieu (Maillat, 1998a;1998b), regional innovation systems (Asheim and Isaksen, 2002;Doloreux, and Parto, 2005), and clusters (Porter, 1998;Wolfe, and Gertler, 2004;Malmberg and Power, 2006;Huber, 2011), suggesting the relevance of networks to economic growth and performance. While these studies often apply the network concept in a broad manner, few have sought to apply it in a more formal and constrained way, which would allow for a more precise rendering of the potential role of networks within regional growth processes.…”

The need to better understand the mechanisms underlying regional growth patterns is widely recognised. This paper argues that regional growth is partly a function of the value created through inter-organisational flows of knowledge within and across regions. It is proposed that investment in calculative networks by organisations to access knowledge is a form of capital, termed network capital, which should be incorporated into regional growth models. The paper seeks to develop a framework to capture the value of network capital within these models based on the spatial configuration and the nature of the knowledge flowing through networks.

“…Empirical studies have illustrated that the characteristics of RIS are largely based on idiosyncratic conditions; thus, no universal conceptual model exists (Doloreux and Parto, 2005). Cooke and Morgan (1998) illustrate this conceptual ambiguity by stating that a strict reading of the current literature indicates that only three regions deserve the status as RIS: Silicon Valley (high-tech), Emilia-Romagna (automotive and agrofood), and Baden-Württemberg (automotive and ICTs).…”
