Global pipelines for innovation: insights from the case of Norway
基于418家挪威企业数据，研究发现创新型/激进创新型企业更积极参与国际个人和正式网络，而区域和国家网络与创新无显著正相关，对创新政策有启示。
Using data on 418 Norwegian firms, the results confirm the hypotheses that innovative/radically innovative firms tend to be more involved in international personal and formal networks than non-innovative/incrementally innovative ones. While regional and national networks are much more widespread than international ones, they are not significantly positively associated with innovation. International personal networks and international links with suppliers and customers and with universities and research institutions, as well as global buzz with strangers, are positively related to innovation. This suggests that innovation management and policy, in particular in countries with a limited national innovation base, could benefit from facilitating certain international networks.
