Comparative Innovation Ecosystems :Europe v Silicon Valley
Continental Europe today serves as the core model for regional innovation economies and ecosystems around the world. Key structural elements of this model include family-owned enterprises, public universities, a strong State role, and a focus on traditional industries, especially manufacturing, commerce and agriculture.

What lessons does Europe offer for Silicon Valley and Asia?
