Tiivistelmä: | Knowledge intensive business service companies (KIBS) are an essential element of modern economies, and are thus attracting increasing interest in scientific research. In the existing literature, it is argued that due to the important role of knowledge, innovation and user-producer interaction in KIBS sector, functional integration and spatial proximity are particularly decisive for a company's development. Nevertheless, due to the absence of suitable micro data there is a lack of studies empirically analysing the impact of functional integration and spatial proximity using micro company data. Based upon new company micro data from three German metropolitan regions, this paper supplements the literature by giving a multivariate empirical analysis of the determinants of post-entry performance of KIBS. |
