The Role of Entrepreneurship and Innovation in Peripheral Regions
Entrepreneurship and innovation processes are important dynamics that shape the development of peripheral regions. Regional policy increasingly takes these dynamics into account when trying to foster development in non-core regions. This paper provides the foundation for understanding the role of entrepreneurship in peripheral regions. We first review general characteristics of so-called peripheral regions and their implications for fostering entrepreneurship and innovation. We then investigate the state of research on these dynamics in the context of Switzerland. Finally, we present an overview of the central findings of the papers in this special issue.
