The Economic Performance of European Cities and City Regions: Myths and Realities (2013, background): “On the third point, highly skilled graduates (Berry & Glaeser, 2005; Faggian & McCann, 2006, 2009) and talented and creative workers (Florida, 2002) continue to move to and between our large cities.”
Academic Entrepreneurship: Time for a Rethink? (2015, neutral): “Evidence from studies of graduate employment shows that graduates having graduated in a weak region move to a strong region to get work and that graduates from better universities are more mobile (Faggian and McCann, 2009).”
Rural-to-Urban Commuting: Three Degrees of Integration (2010, background): “These economies arise where the size, diversity, and complexity of urban centers yield greater human capital, enhanced innovation, higher productivity and thus higher factor returns (Duranton and Puga 2004; Faggian and McCann, 2009).”
The interregional migration of human capital and its regional consequences: a review (2017, methodology): “such as graduates, scientists and inventors (Faggian & McCann, 2006, 2009a; Miguélez & Moreno, 2013; Zucker & Darby, 2007).”
Conceptualizing the Regional Roles of Universities, Implications and Contradictions (2010, background): “Faggian and McCann (2009) show that the impact of labour mobility on innovation occurs across regions rather than within the region.”
Smart Specialization, Regional Growth and Applications to European Union Cohesion Policy (2015, background): “…to the induced effect of such a programme, because it is also known that as people acquire more human capital, they become more geographically mobile, and the likelihood of such people leaving less prosperous regions and moving to buoyant regions increases (FAGGIAN and MCCANN, 2006, 2009a, 2009b).”
The rural growth trifecta: outdoor amenities, creative class and entrepreneurial context (2011, background): “The implication is that labor mobility may be an important source of widespread knowledge flows, but one that has been largely disregarded by the empirical focus on localized knowledge spillovers (Breschi and Lissoni, 2001; Faggian and McCann, 2009).”
Selective Migration, Regional Growth and Convergence: Evidence from Italy (2014, background): “For a complete review of the interregional migration issues, see FAGGIAN and MCCANN (2009a).”
Local Labour Markets and the Interregional Mobility of Italian University Students (2013, background): “Interestingly, Faggian and McCann (2009a) find limited support to the view that local universities promote regional innovation and also, in general, that only few universities play a significant role in their local economies (Faggian and McCann, 2009b).”
