Structural dynamics of regional innovation patterns in Europe: the role of inventors’ mobility
研究了发明者和高技能技术人员的流动如何改变区域创新模式的结构，发现人才流入能推动区域创新方式的动态变化。
The role of inventors’ mobility on the innovative capacity of the host region has largely been highlighted, measured and empirically proved. In this work, the perspective is a rather different one. The paper assesses the role that the flow of inventors and high-skilled technicians has on the region's capacity to modify its structural mode of innovation. By applying the regional patterns of innovation framework in a dynamic perspective, it is shown that inventors’ inflows across space produce structural dynamics in the mode regions innovate.
