Regional innovation systems in an era of grand societal challenges: reorientation versus transformation

Arne Isaksen, Michaela Trippl, Heike Mayer · 2022 · European Planning Studies

Transformation goes further, requiring new actors, institutional changes, and disrupted network linkages to create entirely new regional innovation elements. The choice between strategies depends on regional conditions and specific challenges.
