The dynamic contribution of innovation ecosystems to schumpeterian firms: A multi-level analysis

David B. Audretsch, Maksim Belitski, Maribel Guerrero · 2022 · Journal of Business Research

Summary. This study examines how proximity to innovation ecosystem agents affects Schumpeterian firms' innovation performance. Using firm-level data from 2002–2014 covering 3,074 observations, the authors apply knowledge spillover theory to show that geographical closeness to ecosystem agents drives innovation outcomes. The research clarifies how firm size moderates these effects and identifies specific mechanisms through which knowledge spillovers enhance firm performance.
