Intersectoral innovation flows and national technological systems: network analysis for comparing Italy and Germany
Article Abstract:
Italy and Germany maintain different intersectoral innovation flows and national technological systems. The Italian technological system features a dualistic structure where few high-tech sectors co-exist along with a pool of traditional ones. The German system, on the other hand, is characterized by a more evenly distributed structure of intersectoral innovation flows. The design of both Italian and German technological systems is influenced by the foreign market.
