Sustainability transitions in developing countries: Stocktaking, new contributions and a research agenda (2017, background): “…playing a role especially in the least developed ones – and they are typically characterised by less advanced industrial processes, a dominance of low-tech (primary) sectors, reliance on extended family ties and clientelism, and employment in the informal sector (Viotti, 2002; Bell, 2007).”
Learning and catching up in different sectoral systems: evidence from six industries (2011, background): “Think for example of semiconductors and computer hardware in Japan (Goto and Odagiri, 1993), Korea (Kim1997, Lee and Lim,2001) and Taiwan (Mathews, 2002, Amsden and Chu, 2003 Hobday,1995), and aircraft in Brazil (Dahlman and Frischtak 1993 and Viotti 2002).”
The roles of research at universities and public labs in economic catch-up (2005, background): “…technological advance in countries at or close to the frontier (see e.g. Nelson, 1993) recent research has reoriented the concept to provide guidance to countries significantly behind the frontier and striving to catch up (see among others, Kim 1997, 1999; Albuquerque 2003; and Viotti 2002, 2003).”
National innovation systems and the intermediary role of industry associations in building institutional capacities for innovation in developing countries: a critical review of the literature (2015, background): “, effective university-industry linkages) is what separated the so called Asian Tigers from the less performing industrialised economies of Latin America (Argentina, Mexico and Brazil) whose NISs were also studied at this time (see Alcorta and Peres, 1998; Viotti, 2002).”
Innovation capability building and learning mechanisms in latecomer firms: recent empirical contributions and implications for research (2012, background): “This view refers to learning as a mechanism to acquire knowledge from external sources – usually meaning external to the local economy as well as to the technology-using firm, rather than knowledge acquired via internal knowledge-creation activities (Amsden 1989, Viotti 2002).”
The role of transnational dimensions in emerging economy 'Technological Innovation Systems' for clean-tech (2015, background): “We draw on insights from the perspectives of National Learning Systems, International Technology Transfer, and Global Production Networks for this purpose.”
Latecomer firms and the emergence and development of knowledge networks: The case of Petrobras in Brazil (2009, background): “…2004; McKelvey, 1997; McKelvey nd Orsenigo, 2001), and their particular characteristics in latendustrialising economies (e.g. Bell and Albu, 1999; Viotti, 2002). ther contributing literature has addressed aspects of knowledge etworks with a less direct connection to innovation systems – their…”
Recent trends in the research on national innovation systems (2004, background): “For instance, by using Brazil and South Korea as two representative cases, Viotti (2002) deals with innovation patterns in technological laggards.”
National innovation systems, capabilities and economic development (2008, background): “However, the adoption of the innovation system approach to developing countries is a relatively recent phenomenon and arguably still in its infancy (Viotti, 2002; Muchie et al., 2003; Lundvall et al., 2006).”
Handbook of innovation systems and developing countries (2009, background): “We agree with Viotti (2002), that most innovation taking place in developing countries is related to the absorption of technology and competence-building rather than resulting in introductions of new-to-the-world innovations.”
Understanding absorptive capacities in an "innovation systems" context: consequences for economic and employment growth (2004, neutral): “An invention is an idea, sketch or model of any new or improved device, product, 7 These have been referred to as innovation systems (see e.g., Lundvall 1992, Edquist 1997, Narula 2003a) or learning systems (Lall 1992, Viotti 2002).”
