Entrepreneurship, innovation and regional growth: a network theory (2015, background): “Even in those locations possessing a knowledge-rich environment, there is evidence of a greater role being played by nonlocalised networks (Saxenian 2005).”
Universities and open innovation: the determinants of network centrality (2019, background): “Implicit in the argument stemming from observations of advanced regional economies is that the skills and technology gained through local interactions in knowledge-rich environments better prepares firms for obtaining knowledge from distant sources, allowing them to benefit more from overseas knowle”
The mover’s advantage: The superior performance of migrant scientists (2014, background): “Because knowledge is largely tacit and embedded in individuals, migrant scientists can arguably be exceptionally productive because mobility places them in position of arbitrage, where they can exploit rich or unique knowledge sets (Saxenian, 2005; Agrawal et al., 2011).”
The role of transnational dimensions in emerging economy 'Technological Innovation Systems' for clean-tech (2015, background): “This so-called ‘brain-drain’ has long been recognized as an issue for developing and emerging countries (Keely, 1986; Saxenian, 2005).”
Self‐initiated expatriates and their career success (2012, background): “Furthermore, the mobility of skilled migrants has changed from permanent migration to more frequent, temporary, and circular arrangements (OECD, 2008; Saxenian, 2005).”
Universities, knowledge networks and regional policy (2008, background): “In California’s Silicon Valley, Saxenian (2005) describes how Asian engineers and entrepreneurs are creating and building networks between the region and regions in China and India, and transferring knowledge from the west to the east.”
From brain drain to brain gain: reverse migration to Bangalore and Hyderabad, India’s globalizing high tech cities (2007, background): “economic growth in the United States’ IT industry, particularly in the areas of research, innovation and entrepreneurship are acknowledged (Saxenian 2005).”
The Emergence of China and India as New Competitors in MNCs' Innovation Networks (2009, background): “The US-linked ‘diaspora networks’ of overseas Chinese and Indians are a particular feature that supports an especially closely knit-form of collaborative and networked innovation processes in ‘transnational knowledge communities’ across the Pacific (Kuznetsov 2006; Saxenian 2005).”
Scientific Mobility and Knowledge Transfer at the Interregional and Intraregional Level (2013, background): “The notion of ‘brain circulation’ (SAXENIAN, 2005) seems to be more adequate when describing the current situation.”
A Network-based view of regional growth (2014, background): “Even in those locations possessing a knowledge rich environment there is evidence of a greater role being played by non-localised networks (Athreye, 2004; Bathelt et al., 2004; Doloreux, 2004; Garnsey and Heffernan, 2005; Saxenian, 2005; Simmie, 2004; Broekel and Boschma, 2011).”
Incorporating the macro view in global talent management (2015, background): “According to Human Development reports, China, Nepal, Indonesia, Lao PDR and Republic of Korea were among the top 10 “mover's List” in terms of governmentsmaking serious investments and upward leaps in health and education of their people since 1970 (UNDP, 2010), and Bangladesh, Mauritius and Turkey”
Network Capital, Social Capital and Knowledge Flow: How the Nature of Inter-organizational Networks Impacts on Innovation (2012, background): “Even in those locations possessing a knowledge-rich environment there is evidence of a greater role being played by non-localized networks (Athreye, 2004; Doloreux, 2004; Garnsey and Heffernan, 2005; Saxenian, 2005).”
