Innovation, spillovers and university-industry collaboration: an extended knowledge production function approach
分析学术研究的知识溢出对区域创新的影响,发现校企合作网络能跨越地理距离促进知识溢出,基于荷兰区域数据验证。
This article analyses the effect of knowledge spillovers from academic research on regional innovation. Spillovers are localized to the extent that the underlying mechanisms are geographically bounded. However, university–industry collaboration—as one of the carriers of knowledge spillovers—is not limited to the regional scale. Consequently, we expect spillovers to take place over longer distances. The effect of university–industry collaboration networks on knowledge spillovers are modelled using an extended knowledge production function framework applied to regions in the Netherlands. We find that the impact of academic research on regional innovation is not only mediated by geographical proximity but also by networks stemming from university–industry collaboration
