• Entrepreneurship, innovation and regional growth: a network theory (2015, background): “…is considered to have become increasingly important to entrepreneurial firms, which often cannot generate internally all the knowledge necessary for innovation (Freel 2000a, 2003; Hite and Hesterly 2001; YliRenko et al. 2001; Almeida et al. 2003; Huggins and Johnston 2009, 2010; Doran et al. 2012).”
• Entrepreneurship and regional competitiveness: The role and progression of policy (2011, background): “However, changes in levels of entrepreneurship and contributions to regional economic development will take time to emerge, and as such any impacts will only be seen in the long term (Huggins and Johnston 2009 ; Huggins and Williams 2009 ).”
• Roots to Grow: Family Firms and Local Embeddedness in Rural and Urban Contexts (2018, unknown): “…Ramirez-Pasillas, & Karlsson, 2002; Watts, Wood, & Wardle, 2006; Welter, 2011), such as innovation (Huggins & Thompson, 2014), knowledge sharing (Huggins & Johnston, 2009), new venture creation (Breitenecker et al., 2017) and firm growth (Audretsch & Dohse, 2007; Dahl & Sorenson, 2012).”
• Universities and open innovation: the determinants of network centrality (2019, background): “For every successful region, however, there exists many more ‘ordinary’ and less innovative regions (Howells 2005; Tödtling and Trippl 2005; Doloreux and Dionne 2008; Huggins and Johnston 2009).”
• Distinguishing micro-businesses from SMEs: a systematic review of growth constraints (2016, background): “In larger SMEs, networking is positively associated with both employment and turnover growth, especially where networks extend outside a firm’s region, nationally and internationally (Donckels and Lambrecht, 1995; Huggins and Johnston, 2009; Robson and Bennett, 2000), and facilitates innovation (Hug”
