  • How can HSR promote inter-city collaborative innovation across regional borders?

    Publication

    - Year 2023

    Many studies have shown that high-speed rail (HSR) can reshape the spatial pattern of economic geography. However, there needs to be more logical argumentation and rigorous empirical design on the paths and mechanisms involved. This paper considers the impact of the border effect on HSR links and innovation clusters from the perspective of inter-regional collaborative innovation. It provides a logical and compact theoretical...

  • Proximity and Innovation in Clusters: How Close, How Far?

    The concept of proximity, whilst attractive cognitively, is still a poorly explored area in management sciences.

However, the most influential...
