The regional distribution of innovative manufacturing establishments in Britain
Oakey R. P., Thwaites A. T. and Nash P. A. (1980) The regional distribution of innovative manufacturing establishments in Britain, Reg. Studies 14, 235–253. This paper describes the results of a preliminary establishment-based survey within a larger project designed to test the hypothesis that technological change varies between the Economic Planning Regions of Britain. The results based upon information from the Queen's Award to Industry and Science Policy Research Unit Innovation Data Bank, University of Sussex, tend to support the original hypothesis. The evidence suggests that both large and small establishments in the South-East Region were more innovative than those located in other regions. These regional variations appear to be influenced more by the levels of non-production employment in each region rather than by plant size structure or regional industrial structure measured in total manufacturing employment terms.
