Réseaux de conseil et d?autorité dans les clusters de biotechnologies en France?
Résumé
Geographical proximity has often been described as a factor promoting the transfer of tacit knowledge among organizations. We explore this hypothesis by examining the interpersonal advice network among entrepreneurs in several French biotechnology clusters. Our results show that within clusters the exchange of knowledge is more effective than at national level, the intensity of relationships is associated with firm performance, and there is a consensus on the choice of the local epistemic authorities.
