Structural change and resilience in regions

Networks of firms, industries but also of technologies, skills and occupations in regions inform us about regional outcome in terms of technological and economic progress. This is especially important to understand how collective action can be taken by actors in the region in or how the local economy responses to external shocks. ANETI researchers pioneer new network approaches to understand these processes and to explain how regions develop new specializations through linkages.
