Innovation in the Rural Areas and the Linkage with the Quintuple Helix Model

Vincenzo Provenzano, Massimo Arnone, Maria Rosaria Seminara · 2016 · Procedia - Social and Behavioral Sciences

Summary. Rural areas function as productive systems where agriculture connects with other economic activities. The paper argues that protecting ecosystems and implementing the Quintuple Helix Model—which links innovation processes across multiple sectors—enables rural development based on sustainable competitiveness. Using Sicily and Italian regional data, the authors demonstrate how peripheral areas can adopt Smart Specialization Strategy to create new development models that balance economic growth with environmental protection.
