The paper analyses a number of European regions that in the last two decades have exhibited a significant shift towards knowledge intensive industrial sectors coupled with a considerable increase in competitiveness and growth. The analysis identifies the main factors of territorial development behind each regional renewal process and captures a number of common trajectories of regional competitiveness. Interestingly, all regional ‘success stories’ are strongly dependent on the presence of a tri-polar regional innovation system that glues together firms, institutions and academia.

Abstract
The paper analyses a number of European regions that in the last two decades have exhibited a significant shift towards knowledge intensive industrial sectors coupled with a considerable increase in competitiveness and growth. The analysis identifies the main factors of territorial development behind each regional renewal process and captures a number of common trajectories of regional competitiveness. Interestingly, all regional ‘success stories’ are strongly dependent on the presence of a tri-polar regional innovation system that glues together firms, institutions and academia.File allegato/i alla scheda:
