Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Innovation scholarship has traditionally leaned towards the analysis of innovation processes linked to conditions found in ‘core’ areas; well-functioning economic hubs and dynamic high-technology sectors. Although more recent work on innovation in emerging economies has begun to broaden the picture, innovation in the ‘peripheral’ regions and sectors of developed economies is still largely unexplored. This book is a unique exploration of how innovation processes operate in peripheral regions, while also looking at the key drivers and challenges organizations face in peripheral areas as they strive to innovate and compete globally.

Adopting interdisciplinary approaches from management studies, economics and geography, this book blends theory-building and quantitative approaches to investigate the periphery and innovation nexus, with a focus on bibliometric approach, topic modelling, and patent-based analysis. It will be of great interest to scholars and students of innovation, strategic management, regional development and sustainability.
