The impact of local and external university knowledge on the creation of knowledge-intensive firms: evidence from the Italian case (2014, unknown): “…and codified university knowledge produce effects on new KIF creation, we add to extant studies, which fail to fully appreciate the consequences of the diverse nature of these three types of university knowledge (see, e.g., Acosta et al. 2011; a notable exception is Belenzon and Schankerman 2013).”
The local innovation spillovers of listed firms (2021, background): “By affecting mobility rate of employees, non-compete laws should affect the speed at which knowledge diffuses locally (Stuart and Sorenson, 2003; Garmaise, 2009; Marx et. al. 2007, 2010; Sorenson and Samila, 2011; Belenzon and Schankerman, 2013).”
Roads and Innovation (2017, unknown): “This result confirms the findings in Jaffe et al. (1993) and Belenzon and Schankerman (2013) and is typically interpreted as evidence that knowledge spillovers are geographically bounded.”
Frontier Knowledge and Scientific Production: Evidence from the Collapse of International Science (2018, background): “Previous research has shown that city, state, and country borders are important barriers to knowledge ows, as measured by patent citations (e.g. Ja e et al., 1993; Thompson and Fox-Kean, 2005; Peri, 2005; Belenzon and Schankerman, 2013; Head et al., 2015).”
