Collaborative networks and technology clusters — The case of nanowire
Patenting activities and technology diffusion in high-tech sectors are being increasingly driven by collaborative, international and technology-based new entrants. In the realm of nanotechnology, one of the most mature structures is nanowire. This paper is concerned with the technology transfer process in the nanowire field; in particular it examines how patent collaborations occur and how the key actors interact with each other to support this process. Continue reading Collaborative networks and technology clusters — The case of nanowire
Engineering Small Worlds in a Big Society: Assessing the Early Impacts of Nanotechnology in China
Nanoscience and nanotechnology––involving the engineering of materials, devices, and systems at very small scales––have emerged as important priorities not only for science but also for economic development. Continue reading Engineering Small Worlds in a Big Society: Assessing the Early Impacts of Nanotechnology in China
What Does Politics Have to Do with IT? Economic Distribution and Innovation Policy in OECD Countries
Despite the fact that the distributional impact of innovation has been recognized in the social science literature, to date virtually no work has been done on the politics of distribution of innovation policy. This study is the first to examine innovation policy in developed countries from the distributional perspective. Continue reading What Does Politics Have to Do with IT?
