Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study focuses on knowledge spillover as a agglomeration externality and investigate the geographical location of knowledge-creating activity and geographical friction in collaboration. It is found that knowledge-creating activities are more localized than other economic activities and that geographical friction is persistent. We also find that both common knowledge and diverse knowledge are important for collaboration and inventor’s mobility increases organization’s productivity, suggesting knowledge spillover between inventors. We also focus on transaction network which relates to firm performance.
