Regional growth in the European Union hinges to a large extent on smart specialization, a new and exciting theme in economic innovation studies. Advances in the Theory and Practice of Smart Specialization illuminates problems that have stifled the implementation of smart specialization policies, such as unique regional constraints and the inter-dependent demands of economic growth and commercial development. Forward-looking and pragmatic, it provides guidance for developing smart specialization strategies both to those involved in European affairs and others grappling with regional innovation and economic development worldwide.
- Emphasizes specific contexts for smart specialization, its international approach and institutional preconditions
- Examines comparable initiatives worldwide
- Explains how to implement smart specialization policies given different development levels of regions and countries

"Smart specialization strategies are back on the scene. By asking intriguing questions, like how the capacities required for SSS can be developed, the book brilliantly underlines the complexity in applying this new European innovation policy strategy." --Roberta Capello, Politecnico di Milano, Past President of RSAI
"This book brings together a highly impressive list of authors, each providing expert insights into the nature of innovation within regions and the role of public policy in fostering its enhancement and effectiveness. Smart specialization is a concept that captures many contemporary perspectives on regional economic development, and this volume is a state-of-the-art contribution to these discussions." --Robert Huggins, Cardiff University
"The generalization of 'smart specialization' niches, intersecting with lateral Triple Helix interactions, captured by this ovular volume is an 'innovation in innovation' tale well worth your while." --Henry Etzkowitz, Stanford University and University of London, Birkbeck
"This book provides an excellent discussion of current approaches to regional innovation policy. It particularly explains the theoretical underpinnings and practical challenges of the smart specialization strategy." --Michael Fritsch, Friedrich Schiller University
"Very helpful in handling the challenges of Smart Specialisation strategies." --Mari Jose Aranguren, Orkestra-Basque Institute of Competitiveness
