By: Contributor(s): Material type: TextTextSeries: Policy Research Working Paper, no. 3991Publication details: Washington, D.C. The World Bank 2006 Description: 60 pSubject(s): DDC classification:
  • 378.42
Summary: This paper focuses on Tohoku University in Sendai in the nonmetropolitan area of Japan. Both a long historical and comparative perspective and a spacial perspective are essential to discuss the relevance of university-local industry linkages to local regional economic development. The conjunction of these linkages and economic development has been affected by two evolutionary processes: institutional configurations and territorial dynamics in the national innovation system. In addition, university-local industry linkages have been complicated by top-down regionalization and bottom-up regionalism. -World Bank web site.
