Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This contribution addresses two important streams of research-innovation system research basically addressing the system level and entrepreneurship research basically interested at the actor (firm or individual) level. Building on previous research in these fields (primarily on Cooke [(2001) Regional innovation systems, clusters and the knowledge economy, Industrial and Corporate Change, 10(4), pp. 945-974], Cooke and Leydesdorff [(2006) Regional development in the knowledge-based economy: The construction of advantage, Journal of Technology Transfer, 31(1), pp. 5-15], Sarasvathy [(2001) Causation and effectuation: Toward a theoretical shift from economic inevitability to entrepreneurial contingency, Academy of Management Review, 6(2), pp. 243-263], Johannisson [(2000) Modernising the industrial district: Rejuvenation or managerial colonisation? in: E. Vatne & M. Taylor (Eds) The Networked Firm in a Global World, pp. 283-308 (Aldershot, Hants: Ashgate Publishing)]), a typology developed depicting characteristics both at the system level and at the actor level of an institutional regional innovation system (IRIS) and an entrepreneurial regional innovation system (ERIS) as well as a "conceptual bridge" between innovation system research and entrepreneurship research is suggested. While the developed ERIS type of regional innovation systems due to its marked orientation towards individual actors and their behaviour leans more towards the main stream of entrepreneurship research, the IRIS type of regional innovation systems has more similarities with conventional innovation system research. It is argued that by also applying concepts depicting different management preferences and behaviour from entrepreneurship research, we should be able to better understand the different logics guiding these two types of regional innovation systems. The relevance of the extended typology thus developed is then illustrated by two empirical cases located in northern Sweden and form the base for policy implications derived from this study.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- This paper penetrates whether external competence acquisition (strategies, frequency and perceived value of different external competencies) distinguishes SMEs with low and high market performance. The empirical base consists of 51 manufacturing SMEs representing electronic manufacturing, mechanical engineering and wood-processing industries located to different parts of Sweden. The results indicate that high market performance can be related to a complementing (in stead of a compensating) acquisition strategy where suppliers, banks and auditors are perceived as more important. Another result is that firms with high market performance are more market-oriented, and operate on more turbulent markets with broader ranges of internal competencies.
