Title: Innovation in Europe: A Tale of networks, Knowledge and Trade in Five Cities
Description: This paper examines the relationships between innovation and space, through studies of innovative firms in Amsterdam, London, Milan, Paris and Stuttgart. It uses the study to test four groups of theory: traditional agglomeration theory, networking, learning and new competitiveness theory. Local linkages emerge as more important in 'regional' cities than international 'world' cities.
