Defining Clusters of Related Industries (2014, methodology): “We could then analyze the microgeography of clusters within (and across) jurisdictions (e.g., Duranton and Overman, 2005; Kerr and Kominers, 2010; Alcacer and Zhao, 2013).”
Clusters for life or life cycles of clusters: in search of the critical factors of clusters' resilience (2014, background): “Theoretical and empirical literature suggests that the successive stages of the product’s life also relate to different industrial organizations (Williamson 1975; Klepper 1996; Malerba and Orsenigo 1996; Klepper and Simons 1997; Corrocher, Malerba, and Montobbio 2007; Klepper 2010) and different str”
The emerging empirics of evolutionary economic geography (2011, background): “…diverse as the global fashion design industry (Wenting 2008), the U.S. tire industry (Buenstorf and Klepper, 2009), the U.S. semiconductor industry (Klepper, 2010), the Dutch banking industry (Boschma and Wenting, 2010), the Dutch publishing industry (Heebels and Boschma, 2010) and the global…”
Industrial Dynamics and Clusters: A Survey (2015, background): “…and WENTING, 2007), the global fashion industry (WENTING, 2008), the US tyre industry (BUENSTORF and KLEPPER, 2009), the US semiconductor industry (KLEPPER, 2010), the German machine tool industry (BUENSTORF and GUENTHER, 2011), and the Dutch publishing industry (HEEBELS and BOSCHMA, 2011), being…”
National Systems of Entrepreneurship: Measurement issues and policy implications (2014, background): “Although there have been numerous studies at the regional level – notably, in high-technology clusters such as the Silicon Valley and Route 128 – (see, e.g., Adams, 2011; Kenney and von Burg, 1999; Klepper, 2010) there have been virtually no studies applying a systemic approach to understand the ent”
Lock-in or lock-out ? How structural properties of knowledge networks affect regional resilience (2014, background): “It is also consistent with the relational behavior of spinoffs that tend to connect to their often highly connected parentÕs company (Klepper, 2010)”
Clusters, Convergence, and Economic Performance (2014, neutral): “Several studies suggest that the emergence of new industries in a region is affected by the pre-existing industry composition of the region (Swann, 1998; Porter, 1998; Klepper, 2007, 2010; Neffke et al., 2011).”
Coagglomeration, Clusters, and the Scale and Composition of Cities (2014, neutral): “Delgado, Porter, and Stern ð2010Þ, Glaeser and Kerr ð2010Þ, Kerr ð2010Þ, and Klepper ð2010Þ are recent contributions.”
Urban Economics and Entrepreneurship (2009, neutral): “Klepper (2010) offers a further perspective on this topic by examining the history of spinoffs in Detroit – with the auto industry – and in Silicon Valley – with the integrated circuit or semi-conductor industry.”
Industry structure, entrepreneurship, and culture: An empirical analysis using historical coalfields (2016, background): “In particular, entrepreneurship activities, as measured and reflected by the start-up of new firms also tends to be much more highly concentrated in certain locations than in others (Audretsch and Fritsch, 1994; Klepper, 2010; Glaeser and Kerr, 2009; Rosenthal and Strange, 2003).”
