This paper sheds light on the questions, Why does knowledge spill over? and How does knowledge spill over? The answer to these questions we suggest lies in the incentives confronting scientists to appropriate the expected value of their knowledge considered in the context of their path-dependent...

Innovative firms often engage in knowledge interactions across regional boundaries, which is difficult to account for by territorial innovation models. The territorial knowledge dynamics perspective directs attention to the ways in which firms and other actors combine regional and extra-regional...

This paper investigates the geographic extent of foreign direct investment (FDI) technology spillovers and diffusion in … spatial dimensions of FDI spillovers. Our empirical results show that FDI presence (measured as employment share) in a … location. Nevertheless, these negative intra-regional spillovers are found to be locally bounded. Domestic private firms enjoy …

Usually, the diffusion of a non-rival market knowledge externality - called a Knowledge Spillover (KS) - is related to geographical proximity. In this paper we explore the channels through which knowledge spreads. Compared with earlier work on KS measures, this study makes a step forward by...
