INTERFIRM KNOWLEDGE EXCHANGES AND THE KNOWLEDGE CREATION CAPABILITY OF CLUSTERS.
提出集群知识创造能力的概念,并构建模型分析促进企业间知识交流的因素,帮助理解集群如何提升知识创造效果。
I build on the literature that views clusters as venues of enhanced knowledge creation and introduce the concept of a cluster's knowledge creation capability. I then develop a model that outlines the antecedents of this concept. The model concentrates on factors that create opportunities for, enable, and increase the effectiveness of interfirm knowledge exchanges among cluster firms. These three sets of factors point to three types of knowledge creation failures within clusters.
