Nanotechnologies and geographical concentration of the production of knowledgeHave a look at the great scientific and technical dynamics that are operating (see video) in yhe field of nanotechnologies. In a world of global trading, the role played by geographical areas in the dynamics of localization does not seem very important. Yet, the production of knowledge in the field of nanotechnologies is concentrated in some particular areas (clusters). Technological collaborations in the field of nanotechnologiesThis article displays an interactive map of technological collaborations between geographical clusters where patents were registered in the field of nanotechnologies between 1990 and 2007. We have drawn a map of the networks created concerning the inventors and their localizations. Scientific collaborations in the field of nanotechnologiesBased on our different research, this article displays an interactive map of scientific collaborations between geographical clusters where scientific publications in the field of nanotechnologies were published between 1998 and 2006. |
