The transfer of new, economically useful knowledge from universities to the regional economy has recently attracted the attention of academics, professionals and policy makers alike. This book focuses on three issues at the centre of current research: the geography of academic knowledge transfers, the mechanisms of these transfers with regard to academic entrepreneurship and graduate mobility, and policy experience in university-based regional economic development. Attila Varga provides state-of-the-art overviews of the field, and presents thorough empirical studies comprising data from three continents.
