Abstract

This paper assesses the dynamics of technology development and economic growth in the technopolis or modern city-state. It describes seven segments within the technopolis: the university, large technology companies, small technology companies, state government, local government, federal government, and support groups. In the process, the paper points to new institutional relationships affecting economic development and examines the role of influencers in economic diversification. San Antonio, Texas, is used as a case study of a developing technopolis to analyze how this process works. The paper concludes with a list of key factors affecting the development of the modern technopolis.
