Abstract
Territoriality is an important dimension of knowledge production and application. Despite the ethereal nature of the product itself, knowledge is thought to originate from, and be anchored to, particular places. Over recent decades various studies have focused on and explored the spatial dimension of knowledge production. This includes work on national and regional innovation systems, on ‘innovative milieu’ and spatial clusters, or what Moulaert and Sekia (1999) call ‘Territorial Innovation Models’. These studies have shaped a perspective that stands in marked contrast to the notion of ‘footloose’ knowledge that travels at the speed of light through the world’s electronic highways. So, for knowledge production like for other forms of production, space still seems to make a difference.
