Firms’ Absorptive Capacity for Research-Based Collaboration—an Analysis of a Norwegian R&D Brokering Policy Program
2017
The objective of this article is to explore how policy supported instruments aimed to stimulate research-based innovation influence long-term innovation activity in firms with different knowledge bases. In an effort to contribute to the renewal of existing industry, some policies aim to stimulate firms to adopt and apply research-based knowledge in innovation processes. This article includes a qualitative study of a specific ‘R&D brokering policy instrument’ in Norway aimed at increasing R&D-based innovation processes in firms. R&D brokering policy instruments include funding schemes that are designed to foster and transfer technology and knowledge between firms and research communities. Th…

Developing cross-industry innovation capability: regional drivers and indicators within firms
2017
ABSTRACTThe role of firms in the process of regional renewal and path development is a somewhat neglected area in the existing literature. With few exceptions, the literature is mainly concerned with aggregated development paths. To cover this gap, the current study turns its attention to cross-industry innovation capability (CIIC) building in firms and discusses how conditions for innovation and learning in a region drive this process. We introduce a new concept of CIIC – that is, the firm’s ability to transform knowledge and ideas from different industries into new products, processes and systems and/or its ability to adapt existing products, processes and systems to new industries – and …
Asset modification for regional industrial restructuring: digitalization of the culture and experience industry and the healthcare sector
2021
This paper researches how firm- and system-level asset modification and alignment underpin and direct new path development from digitalization. It suggests that asset reuse mostly promotes path extension or path upgrading, while asset creation and asset destruction will be more evident in the process of path emergence. The empirics support asset modification as a key mechanism for regional restructuring from digitalization, but suggest that the typology should be more nuanced. Specifically, the empirics demonstrate asset upgrading as a key mechanism. publishedVersion
