How to distinguish innovative suppliers? Identifying innovative suppliers as new task for purchasing (2006, background): “This is what is reflected in the French school of “economics of proximity”, which assumes at its core that proximity can be divided into physical and organizational proximity, which, however, tend to coincide (Torre & Gilly, 2000).”
Proximity, Knowledge and Innovation in Peripheral Regions. On the Intersection between Geographical and Organizational Proximity (2007, background): “Such a perspective has been promoted, in particular, through the contributions by Torre and Gilly (2000) and Torre and Rallet (2005) .”
Incubator, technology, and innovation centres in Switzerland: features and policy implications (2001, background): “These technologyoriented activities tend to concentrate in more dense areas or in agglomerations in order to pro® t from positive agglomeration eU ects, such as proximity to customers, suppliers, business-related services and venture capitalists (Saxenian 1991, Torre and Gilly 2000 ).”
Proximity, networking and knowledge production in Europe: What lessons for innovation policy? (2013, background): “Nonetheless, the French School of Proximity [49,73] argues that geographical proximity is neither necessary nor sufficient and that there may be a separate role for a-spatial links among economic entities (see [23], for a recent review).”
The Scientific Trajectory of the French School of Proximity: Interaction- and Institution-based Approaches to Regional Innovation Systems (2008, background): “In international publications, several analysis grids have been developed (Kirat & Lung, 1999 ; Torre & Gilly, 2000 ; Torre & Rallet, 2005 ; Boschma, 2005 ), which constitute useful benchmarks and tractable tools for analysing the performance of regional innovation systems such as clusters or ot”
Regional clusters in Germany--their geography and their relevance for entrepreneurial activities (2004, background): “(‘ ‘Geographical proximity’ ’ following the French school led by Torre and Gilly, 2000) has become very modern in particularly those areas of economics whose protagonists consider themselves to be a part of the ‘new economic geography’.”
The effect of institutional proximity in non-local university–industry collaborations: An analysis based on Chinese patent data (2013, background): “The French School of Proximity Dynamics also claims that geographic proximity is just one dimension of multiple forms of proximities to consider in collective learning (Kirat and Lung, 1999; Torre and Gilly, 2000).”
Is the Creation and Development of Biotech SMEs Localised? Conclusions Drawn from the French Case (2001, background): “That is why it is necessary first clearly to define the concept of proximity in the two senses used here: geographic proximity and organisational proximity, as well as the concepts related to this approach ( Torre and Gilly, 2000 ).”
