Promotion of Innovative Entrepreneurship in Czechia: the Role of Science and Technology Parks
Czechia seeks to respond to the challenges coming with the development of knowledge-based economy. It builds up innovation infrastructure with the aim of filling the gap between research institutions and application sector, especially private firms. Tools lowering the barriers for the diffusion of technological progress include science and technology parks (STP). STP operate as a platform interconnecting actors involved in the innovation process, they initiate a knowledge transfer and provide specialized business services, all aimed at developing innovative entrepreneurship and research commercialization. Flood of new STP in Czechia draws attention to their particular characteristics and their efficiency. An extensive survey analyzes the role of Czech STP in innovative entrepreneurship development. The evaluation consists of two levels. The first describes the strategic profile of each of the parks and search for common characteristics. The other observes innovation activity of tenant firm separately for the period before and after joining the STP. In addition, the thesis discusses socio-economic context from which innovation infrastructure originates, and factors influencing its efficiency. Author distinguishes 4 specific types in the sample of 22 STP. Evidence of 78 tenant firms suggests a positive effect..
