Willem Hulsink1, Harry Bouwman2 e Tom Elfring3 Resumo O iniciadores de alta tecnologia não operam em um vácuo, e inovação não é uma atividade solitária. As atividades de empresas baseadas nas firmas de tecnologia da informação e comunicação (TIC) estão enraizadas em redes sócio-econômicas com outras companhias, investidores, universidades, instituições vocacionais e de localização das firmas TIC. Além disso, muitas companhias de alta tecnologia amoldam estas aglomerações em torno de áreas onde seus clientes principais ficam situados. Um modelo dinâmico previamente desenvolvido para a análise do empreendedorismo e das redes nas TICs será aplicado para fazer uma análise crítica de cinco aglomerações de TIC nos Países Baixos e Flandres ( parte do norte da Bélgica): o Corredor de Tecnologia de Louvain, Vale Lingüístico de Flandres, Alameda de Amsterdã, Vale de Dommel e Twente.

Accepted 12 May, 2009 The aim of our study is to review the readiness of selected African countries to invest in Science and Technology Parks and manage them effectively. This is justified by the fact that the number of ongoing or foreseen projects aiming at the establishment of Science Parks is growing on one side. On another side, we observe simultaneously a persisting lack of critical scientific mass for knowledge production and the limited cases of success with regard to those which have been already established. Our study will also raise a provocative query or concern about possible alternative forms of infrastructure that can be most effective and appropriate to support the promotion of technologies and innovations in African countries. Key words: Science park, technology park, Africa, knowledge society, high technology readiness.

  • Economic Agglomeration and Industrial Clustering in Developing Countries: the Case of the Mexican Silicon Valley
    Section Three ECONOMIC AGGLOMERATION AND INDUSTRIAL CLUSTERING IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES: THE CASE OF THE MEXICAN SILICON VALLEY Juan J. Palacios 162 INTRODUCTION Economic agglomeration is a ubiquitous phenomenon that has been studied for more than a century by geographers and a rather narrow slice of economists that have been intrigued by the way production and commercial activities tend to concentrate in certain points of national territories over time. In recent times, in the last decade or so, some noted members of the mainstream economics profession have discovered the geographic dimension of economic processes and have thus focused their attention on the where and why of these processes, and specifically on the concentration of businesses and industrial plants in given regions and locales. It was a member of the scholarly business profession, however, who produced a theory that has become the conventional wisdom for the study of industrial clustering the world over, namely Michael Porter. Economic agglomeration in general, and industrial clustering in particular, tend to adopt different modalities according to the specific characteristics of the country or locale in question. Some basic, common elements remain, though, across locations and cases, which reveal recurrent patterns and permit the analyst to discern lessons and principles that can be useful for both advancing knowledge on and formulating policy guidelines to orientate new or ongoing processes of cluster formation in other latitudes. The aim of this report is to examine those phenomena by discussing some of the most influential theoretical accounts that have been developed to explain them with an eye to evaluate their relevance for developing countries.

  • Cluster-Based Local Economic Development
    Competitive Cities in the 21st Century Cluster-Based Local Economic Development Urban Development Series Economic challenges in developing Asian countries have become more complex: urban populations are growing at great cost to the environment, climate change has increased risks of natural disasters, and income gaps within and between developing countries are widening. These factors threaten the sustainable growth and development of urban areas, the drivers of Asia’s economy. A strategic approach for inclusive growth is needed. The City Cluster Economic Development approach provides a strategic Competitive Cities in the 21st CenturyCompetitive framework and a set of analytical tools, which governments, businesses, and communities can use to support the inclusive and sustainable development Competitive Cities of competitive urban economies in Asia. Said approach was developed and tested by the Asian Development Bank to improve the basis for integrated planning and development of urban regions in Asia and the Pacific. It also helps urban managers and other city stakeholders identify action plans and in the 21st Century determine priority investment areas. Cluster-Based Local Economic Development About the Asian Development Bank ADB’s vision is an Asia and Pacific region free of poverty. Its mission is to help its developing member countries reduce poverty and improve the quality of life of their people. Despite the region’s many successes, it remains home to two-thirds of the world’s poor: 1.8 billion people who live on less than $2 a day, with 903 million struggling on less than $1.25 a day. ADB is committed to reducing poverty through inclusive economic growth, environmentally sustainable growth, and regional integration.
