Collective Learning and Knowledge Development in the Evolution of Regional Clusters of High Technology SMEs in Europe

Keeble, David, Wilkinson, Frank·1999·Regional Studies

Abstract

KEEBLE D. and WILKINSON F. (1999) Collective learning and knowledge development in the evolution of regional clusters of high technology SMEs in Europe, Reg. Studies 33 , 295-303 . This paper outlines the aims and objectives of the TSER Network on Networks, Collective Learning and Research and Technology Development in Regionally Clustered High Technology Small and Medium Sized Enterprises (SMEs), and considers evolutionary trajectories of European regional clusters of such SMEs in the 1990s. It reviews the development of ideas concerning regional clustering, from Marshall's industrial districts, through innovative milieux, to notions of regional untraded interdependencies, networks and collective learning. Particular attention is paid to how firms and regions develop competences and new knowledge as the basis for successful innovation. It concludes by outlining the focus of individual papers. KEEBLE D. et WILKINSON F.(1999)L'apprentissage collectif et le développement des connaissances dans l'évolution des regroupements régionaux des PME de pointe en Europe, Reg. Studies 33 , 295-303 . Cet article cherchè a esquisser les buts et les objectifs du Réseau TSER relatif 'aux réseaux, à l'apprentissage collectif, et au développement de la recherche et de la technologie dans les PME de pointe regroupées sur le plan régional', et examine le développement des trajectoires des regroupements régionaux européens des PME de ce genre aux années 1990. On fait la critique du développement des idées qui portent sur le regroupement régional, de la notion de districts industriels selon Marshall, par la notion de milieux innovateurs, aux notions d'interdépendances régionales non-commercialisables, de réseaux et d'apprentissage collectif. On prête une attention particulière à la façon dont les entreprises et les régions développent des compétences et de nouvelles connaissances, ce qui sert de basè a l'innovation réussie. Pour conclure, on esquisse le centre d'intérêt de chacun des articles. KEEBLE D. und WILKINSON F. (1999) Kollektives Lernen und Mehrung des Wissensstandes bei der Entwicklung regionaler Kluster kleiner und mittelgroßer, hoch technisierter Unternehmen in Europa, Reg. Studies 33 , 295‐303 . Dieser Aufsatz umreißt die Ziele und Objektive des TSER Netzes fu ¨r ‘Netzwerke, kollektives Lernen und Forschung, und technologische Entwicklung in regional geklusterten, hoch technisierten kleinen und mittelgroßen Unternehmen' (small and medium enterprises=SME), und betrachtet evolutiona ¨re Bahnen europa ¨ischer regionaler Kluster solcher SME in den neunziger Jahren dieses Jahrhunderts. Er bespricht die Entwicklung von Ideen, die sich mit regionalen Klustern bescha ¨ftigen, von Marshalls Industriegebieten u ¨ber innovative Milieus bis zu außergescha ¨ftlichen gegenseitigen Abha ¨ngigkeiten, Netzwerken und kollektivem Lernen. Besondere Aufnerksamkeit wird der Art und Weise gewidmet, in der Firmen und Regionen Kompetenzen und neue Kenntnisse als Grundlage fu ¨r erfolgreiche Innovation entwickeln. Der Aufsatz schließt mit einer U¨bersicht u ¨ber die Hauptanliegen der einzelnen Beitra ¨ge.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
