Description

This collection of essays challenges the traditional neoclassical approach to innovation and growth, focusing on interactive and experiential innovation, and reaffirming the importance of science and technology as a means of mutual strengthening.

Through a detailed examination of the performanceof geographical areas of outstanding economic growth, this volume responds to the needs of economies with limited financial capacity for investment in standard knowledge-based inputs and human capital. Contributions instead emphasise the potential for innovation and development in practical and technological areas, providing valuable policy lessons for SME-based economies.
