Universities, knowledge networks and regional policy (2008, background): “As knowledge becomes an increasingly important part of regional innovation and development processes, the role of universities has come to the fore as being core knowledge-producing entities that can play an enhanced role in driving innovation and development processes (Cooke, 2004, Fritsch, 2002).”
The Economic and Innovation Contribution of Universities: A Regional Perspective (2009, background): “Furthermore, as knowledge becomes an increasingly important part of regional innovation and development processes, the role of universities has come to the fore of regional innovation and economic development policy (Fritsch, 2002; Cooke, 2004).”
Bridging Scales in Innovation Policies: How to Link Regional, National and International Innovation Systems (2007, background): “Empirical studies show that urban agglomerations generally appear to be more auspicious to collaborative innovation than peripheral regions (Fritsch, 2002), which underpins the RSI advantages of certain localities.”
Universities and Innovation in Space (2007, background): “The constant term a captures the impact of inputs which are not represented by the other variables of the empirical model and may signify the random character of innovation processes (Fritsch, 2002; Fritsch and Franke, 2004).”
The Effect of Industry, Region, and Time on New Business Survival – A Multi-Dimensional Analysis (2004, background): “In fact, Audretsch and Fritsch (2002) and Fritsch and Falck (2003) found that a certain type of growth regime tends to apply to geographical areas that are considerably larger than districts or even planning regions.8 We accounted for this type of spatial autocorrelation by including a weighted…”
Knowledge flow and inter-firm networks: The influence of network resources, spatial proximity and firm size (2010, methodology): “These patterns also resemble the types of regional innovation systems proposed by Cooke (2004) and others (Asheim 2002; Fritsch 2002; Doloreux and Dionne 2008), whereby interaction is systemized through both regional and spatially wider networks.”
The territorial dynamics of innovation: a Europe-United States Comparative Analysis (2007, methodology): “ISSN 1468-2702 12 unit of observation, we adopt a geographical unit (NUTS regions for the EU and MSAs for the US) similar to that of Audretsch (2003), Audretsch and Feldman (1996), Feldman (1994), Fritsch (2002), and Varga (1998).”
The persistence of regional new business formation-activity over time – assessing the potential of policy promotion programs (2007, background): “It is well known, however, that regions are rather different and that different regional growth regimes may be identified (Audretsch and Fritsch 2002; Fritsch 2004; Fritsch and Mueller 2005, 2006) in which the level as well as the character of entrepreneurship may differ considerably (see…”
Patents and innovation counts as measures of regional production of new knowledge (2002, methodology): “…studies of regional innovation in the US (Jaffe 1989, Acs, Audretsch and Feldman 1991, Anselin, Varga and Acs, 1997, 2000, Varga 2000), in Italy (Audretsch and Vivarelly 1994, Capello 2001), in France (Autant-Bernard 1999) in Austria (Fischer and Varga 2001b) and in Germany (Fritsch 2002).”
Knowledge Coherence, Variety and economic Growth: Manufacturing Evidence from Italian Regions (2010, background): “…on the determinants of cross-regional differences in the efficiency of knowledge creation, like knowledge spillovers and spatial proximity, within the context of a knowledge production function approach (Acs et al., 2002; Fritsch, 2002 and 2004; Fritsch and Franke, 2004; Crescenzi et al., 2007).”
The effect of new business formation on regional development over time: the case of Germany (2006, methodology): “Conducting this type of analysis for a longer period of time, Audretsch and Fritsch (2002) did, indeed, find strong indications for longterm effects of start-ups.”
