Did the global financial crisis impact firms' innovation performance? The role of internal and external knowledge capabilities in high and low tech industries (2018, unknown): “These external knowledge sources allow low-tech firms to access varied knowledge that would be difficult to obtain elsewhere, and to better understand new markets and demand trends (Hansen and Winther, 2014; Hirsch-Kreinsen, 2008).”
Open, Semi-Open and Closed Innovators: Towards an Explanation of Degree of Openness (2010, background): “The knowledge bases in the low-tech sector are very distributed (Hirsch-Kreinsen, 2009) and innovation performance in this sector is highly dependent on the knowledge coming from high-tech industries (Robertson and Patel, 2007).”
Capturing value from alliance portfolio diversity: The mediating role of R&D human capital in high and low tech industries (2017, background): “Innovation in lowtech sectors is driven by customer-related and practical knowledge (Hirsch-Kreinsen, 2008; Von Tunzelmann and Acha, 2005; Heidenreich, 2009) and is usually not an outcome of the latest scientific or technological knowledge (Som, 2012).”
Innovation, regional development and relations between high- and low-tech industries (2011, methodology): “Prominence in these studies is given to innovation strategies focusing on step-by-step developments of products, refinement and specialisation of production processes and customisation of products (Hirsch-Kreinsen, 2008).”
