The Small Business Innovation Research Program -- Geography and Innovation -- Evaluating Innovative Activity -- Metropolitan Sbir Activity in the 1990s -- Agency Effects in Federally Funded Innovation -- Metropolitan Patent Activity in the 1990s -- Conclusion.
The Geography of Small Firm Innovation offers a unique look at the importance of geographic proximity to the innovative activity of high-tech small firms. The book explores the concentration of innovation across metropolitan areas in the United States during the 1990s, by introducing a novel measure of small-firm innovation based on the U.S. Small Business Innovation Research Program, the largest federal R and D program for small business. The empirical evidence indicates the differing effects of technological infrastructure on the likelihood of innovation occurring in a metropolitan area, which has implications for public policy.
