Summary: | "With contributions from nineteen experts in their field, this book proposes a "sectoral system of innovation" (SSI) homework to analyze the innovation process, the factors affecting innovation, the relationship between innovation and industry dynamics, the changing boundaries and the transformation of sectors, and the determinants of the innovation performance of firms and countries in different sectors. Innovation in a sector is considered to be affected by three groups of variables: knowledge and technologies; actors and networks; and institutions. In addition to providing a general framework, this book examines innovation in six major sectors in Europe: pharmaceuticals and biotechnology, telecommunications equipment and services, chemicals, software, machine tools and services."--Jacket. |
