| Tiivistelmä: | This study tries to understand, why Silicon Valley has originated such many breakthrough innovations and large companies. The economy is viewed as a complex innovative capability of Silicon Valley, whose nodes are companies and whose links represent the various economic and financial ties connecting them. Innovation and entrepreneurship are understood as resulting from the interactions of numerous economic agents. The perspective of the study examines five different contributions of venture capital companies to Silicon Valley: financing, selection, collective learning, embedding and signalling. |
