“…Only recently, have shown that industries with different knowledge base vary strongly in their needs and requirements on innovation policy, while existing policy initiatives, at least in the case of southern Sweden, tend to neglect those differences in favour of rather generic policy measures. It is claimed here that policies should take into account the variety of knowledge bases in a regional innovation system and provide appropriate support that is attuned to the differentiated nature and geography of innovation (Hassink and Plum 2011b). Table 2 provides an overview on key elements of a regional innovation policy approach that is fine-tuned to the needs and characteristics of analytical, synthetic and symbolic industries.…”

Regional innovation strategies rank on the top of public policy agendas today. There is a widespread consensus in both academic and policy circles that standardised "best practice" innovation policy models suffer from severe limitations and major shortcomings. The recent literature is replete with claims that regional innovation policies should be place-based and context-sensitive, taking into consideration the specificities of regions and their distinctive preconditions and capacities for innovation. Various conceptual approaches and theories support such a view. This paper discusses two concepts, which have a particularly strong potential for informing a differentiated regional innovation policy approach; the regional innovation system (RIS) theory and the knowledge base concept. The RIS literature highlights the importance of the organisational and institutional setting of a region and suggests that system deficiencies or failures should constitute the starting point for designing regional innovation policies. The differentiated knowledge base approach stresses that regional industries differ strongly in the underlying knowledge bases and, as a consequence, in their policy needs. We elaborate on the policy implications that originate from these concepts and argue that tailor-made regional innovation policies should consider both region-specific institutional setups and knowledge bases.

“…The cluster model (Breschi, 2007; Maskell and Malmberg, 2007; Porter, 1990, 1998) and the regional systems of innovation (RISs) approach (Asheim and Gertler, 2005; Braczyk et al, 1998; Cooke, 1992, 2001) have evolved into the most influential conceptual foundations for this policy field. Since they first emerged, these approaches have undergone extensive revisions, above all because of the increasing importance of knowledge and innovation in the economy (Bathelt et al, 2004; Cooke, 2001; Martin and Trippl, 2015; Maskell, 2001; Maskell et al, 2004; Plum and Hassink, 2011). Lately, we are witnessing a more radical shift that has been characterised as one “from cluster to process” (Ibert et al, 2015).…”

Open Region: Creating and exploiting opportunities for innovation at the regional scale

The starting point of the article is the observation of an increasing convergence of regional development and innovation policies. These policies are heavily influenced by territorial innovation models that have been extensively revised since they first came about over 30 years ago. Yet, more recent trends towards digitalisation and conceptual advances towards a time-spatial perspective on innovation processes require a more fundamental re-thinking of the nexus of development, innovation policies and territoriality. This paper therefore aims to advance an agenda for reconceptualising region-based innovation policies beyond the assumptions of territoriality implicit in territorial innovations models and related policy schemes. “Open Region” is a heuristic way of thinking about proactive policy measures for redesigning the dialectic interplay between territorial openness and closure. These measures, in essence, aim at creating and exploiting opportunities for innovation within a region by mobilising external expertise and establishing local anchors for innovation. Finally, we address the limitations of applicability and discuss incentives for regional actors to embark on Open Region strategies. The suggested measures can work together, yet it is also possible to utilise them in an eclectic manner or to selectively recombine them in order to address different local conditions.
