A methodological proposal to analysis the role of universities in innovation geography

Abstract

This study aims to examine the role of universities in innovative knowledge production and innovation in Turkey. Contrary to previous studies that present descriptive indicators related to innovation, the study investigates role of universities by concentrating on collaborative network of inventors those play key role in knowledge production and dissemination. Therefore the study proposes a quantitative analytical framework that able to comprehend dynamics of innovation processes in Turkey can be improved. The findings of study reveal that Turkey is relatively lagged in innovation and network between inventors in innovative knowledge production is considerably weak. Weak ties between inventors appear as significant obstacle in terms of innovative knowledge spillovers. Besides, in terms of organizational proximity university member inventors perform weaker connection on collaboration networks and there are considerable differentiations between them and other inventors those working in business. The results indicate inventors who are not affiliated with universities perform higher values in terms of diverse measures of social network of innovative knowledge production.
