	abstract = {The aim of this chapter is to discuss the role played by the internal capital market in business groups, the results so far achieved by the literature and to open new lines of research on how these internal flows influence the relations between companies belonging to the same group and in particular the relation between the head and its subsidiaries. The internal capital market may play a dual role. The first is that the presence of internal capital flows within a group can make it easier for companies to survive an external shock, such as an economic-financial crisis. The second is that the internal capital market facilitates the allocation of resources to investment projects, in particular innovative projects, for which it could be difficult to raise external funds. Most of this literature is focused mainly on large groups, undervaluing the relevance and the implications of small and medium-sized business groups.},

	abstract = {Smart Specialisation Strategy required regional authorities to identify technological domains where to concentrate investment in R\&D and innovation. Their choices should originate from an analysis of regional strengths, aiming to identify those domains with the greatest potential for innovation and diversification. This paper aim to assess the degree of relatedness between chosen technological domains. We use patent data to categorize technological domains and the revealed associations methodology to measure their degree of relatedness. We find that the choices made by Italian regions show a significant higher relatedness as compared to a random choice, though with notable exceptions. {\textcopyright} 2019 The Author(s).

	abstract = {ABSTRACTEuropean guidelines for the smart specialization strategy (S3) required regions to identify synergies between technological domains within the same region (relatedness) and potential links of the chosen domains with other European regions (connectivity). The aim of this paper is to analyse if and to what extent regions have been able to implement such indications and the methodology adopted. The paper is based on a content analysis of the S3 documents approved by Italian regions. The empirical analysis reveals that only in a few cases regions considered relatedness and connectivity of technological domains. Moreover, the methods adopted by regions to detect potential links between the specialization domains is based more on anecdotal evidence than on the application of theoretically grounded methodologies. The paper suggests that the explanation for this omission is the absence of a consolidated methodology to deal with these issues and proposes some preliminary guidelines to overcome the problem.},

	abstract = {Start-ups increasingly find the prospect of university{\textendash}industry collaborations to be a powerful driver of innovation and entrepreneurship activity. Moreover, at the geographical level, they are attracted by teaching and research institutions, either public or private. This paper focuses on the role played by universities. Our hypothesis is that geographical proximity favors the transfer of knowledge and technology from universities to industries and, consequently, represents a positive factor for regional economic development. Results show that university spillovers are positively correlated with the creation of innovative start-ups. Furthermore, the presence of human capital (graduates) exerts a significant influence on the location decisions of start-ups, being a source for competitiveness for firms close to universities. Research quality, especially in the social sciences area, attracts innovative start-ups, while third-mission activities have a weak impact on locational choice. {\textcopyright} 2015, Springer Science+Business Media New York.},
