Novel combinations of technologies are usually the result collaborative work that builds on existing knowledge. Albeit inventors and their respective communities tend to be specialized, inventor collaborations across differently specialized peers have potential generate co-inventor networks provide access a diverse set knowledge facilitate production radical novelty. Previous research has demonstrated short in large enables innovative outcomes regional economies. However, how connections network different technological domains matter what impact they might is still unknown. The present investigation focuses 'atypical' as indicated patent documents. In particular, role specializations linked innovation European regions analyzed. Our results confirm share atypical patents growing where bridging ties establish cohesive sub-networks. Furthermore, evidence suggests strong specialization fosters because these manage increase scale scope novel combinations. Thus, bridges between favor outcomes. shows not diversity per se, but links variously can foster innovation.

The shift to a bioeconomy necessitates radical innovations move from fossil- bio-based economy, with bioclusters playing crucial role by fostering collaboration among wide range of co-located actors find solutions. Through novel methodological approach in regional studies (i.e., archetypal analysis), this study discusses the specificities and analyses relational properties within European bioclusters' knowledge networks. Results suggest four It is rare observe transition biocluster networks one archetype group another. findings provide data-driven typology, offering insights into designing informed place-based policies.

Abstract Firms may seek non-redundant information through inter-firm relations beyond their geographic and cognitive boundaries (i.e., with firms in other regions active different fields). Little is known about the conditions under which benefit from this high-risk/high-gain strategy. We created a digital layer of 600,000 German by using websites’ textual relational content. Our results suggest that strong (relations common third partners) between fields inter-regional are positively associated firm’s innovation level. also found specific combination weak confers greater benefits.
