This book offers a comprehensive overview of the dynamics underpinning the successful performance of local innovation systems (LIS), that is, spatial concentration of innovation activities in specific geographical areas, characterized by the synergetic co-localization of research centers, innovation-driven enterprises, large corporations and capital providers. The reader will gain a deeper knowledge of LIS theory and learn about the theoretical and empirical challenges of studying the LIS from a relational perspective. The book also provides an analytical framework to explore the level of connectivity among LIS actors through the use of social network analysis (network architecture) and second, to assess the variety of different types of relationships that local actors put in place to produce innovation within the LIS (network portfolio). More specifically, this book explores which network configuration is associated with a successful LIS by deriving evidence from the empirical study of the biopharma LIS in the Greater Boston Area (GBA), which has been exemplified as a benchmark case in terms of successful LIS performance.This book also contributes to the theoretical debate about the optimal configuration of network structure (e.g. network closure vs. network openness). In capturing the heterogeneous nature of the LIS demography, it addresses the challenges brought about by the adoption of a holistic approach. Finally, the study provides insights into the network portfolio composition, which has been underexplored by extant literature. Besides addressing the scientific community in the field, this book will also be a valuable resource with practical implications for policymakers and those actors willing to undertake an active role in the development of an LIS in their own regions.

In an era marked by rapid innovation and disruptive technologies like AI, unforeseen global challenges like the recent pandemic, and pressing sustainability challenges, businesses' survival and success hinge on their ability to transform continuously.The success stories of industry giants like Amazon, Uber, and Airbnb reveal a crucial insight: Thriving in today's market isn't just about innovative products or cutting-edge technology—it's about pioneering business models.This book introduces the Transformative Strategic Thinking (TST) toolkit, a creative thinking methodology designed for businesses eager to embrace change and explore new business model scenarios. The TST toolkit combines analytical tools for evaluating current business models with five transformational practices for experimenting with new ones.Concluding with real-life success stories of three entrepreneurs who navigated disruptive innovations and black swan events through the TST approach, this book provides a hands-on perspective on transforming business models. Different from traditional strategy literature, this book doesn't offer off-the-shelf formulas but empowers you to think creatively. With step-by-step guidance, visual collaboration tools, real-world case examples, exercises, and design tips, you will learn to dissect your current business model, identify areas for improvement, and foster a creative approach to developing new models.Targeted at forward-thinking managers, daring entrepreneurs, aspiring business leaders, and ambitious startup founders, the TST toolkit equips them to challenge conventional business models and design innovative ones. It is equally valuable for students and enthusiasts of business design, design thinking, and entrepreneurship.
