Unlike many other inventions, SEPs do not simply scale with city size or prior technological strength. Early standard-setting leadership creates strong path-dependent advantages, but these can weaken across technology generations. Important implications for 5G, 6G & industrial policy. #TechPolicy

We study the geography of cellular Standard Essential Patents in Europe. The striking finding: Helsinki and Stockholm alone account for around one-third of all European cellular SEPs. Standards matter — and their geography is highly uneven.

Top Figure. The histograms illustrate the total number of SEP applications by metropolitan area during the 3G and 4G periods. The y-axis represents the count of all patents that include at least one inventor residing in the area during the specified period. The x-axis displays the top ten EU metropolitan areas ranked by their SEP production for that time frame.

Bottom Figure. The x-axis shows the count of all H04 patent applications containing at least one inventor residing in the metropolitan area during the 3G and 4G periods. The y-axis represents the number of SEP applications during the same time frame. The solid line shows the fitted linear regression, and the shaded band around the fitted line denotes the 95 per cent confidence interval of the estimated regression. We also report the corresponding regression estimates in the top left corner.

A persistent "implementation gap" separates structural exposure from productive firm use due to organizational frictions. Left unmanaged, market forces will widen divergence. We argue for place-sensitive regional policies to bridge the divide. 🏛️ #AI #RegionalDevelopment #EUPolicy #RegionalStudies

We reveal a striking "spatial paradox": while potential AI exposure & worker-level experimentation are widespread across Europe, frontier AI innovation & formal firm-level adoption remain heavily concentrated in a handful of high-income urban hubs.

Policy implication: supporting green transitions is not only about funding green R&D. It also requires strengthening the industrial structures that allow new green technologies to take root, diffuse, and scale. #EconomicGeography #GreenInnovation #IndustrialPolicy #EEG #RegionalStudies #China

The geography matters too: the spatial pattern of green technology entry is highly uneven, with strong regional differences across China.

We introduce two ideas: green technology embeddedness and industry embeddedness. Using data for 253 Chinese cities, we find that both increase the likelihood of green specialisation — especially when they reinforce each other.

Geography and branding in the craft beer industry (doi.org/10.1080/0034...) published in @regionalstudies.bsky.social shows that place-based branding strategies are important marketing tools for regions and firms taking advantage of consumers’ embrace of the local in response to globalisation. (3/3)

Results indicate that place-based branding strategies, as indicated by our GPE (references to geopolitical entities) and LOC (references to natural landmarks and geographic features), have a positive impact on consumers’ perception of craft breweries. Furthermore, a brewery’s status as independent, and the number of beers is it brews have a positive impact on perception. This supports the notion that craft breweries rely on and get rewarded for place-based branding approaches. This echoes arguments put forward in the organizational ecology literature concerning identity-based approaches to marketing and consumer perceptions (Hsu and Hannan, 2005). Looking at some of the variations between different brewery categories, it is evident that microbreweries benefit the most from a marketing language that incorporates geographic features and references, unlike other small-scale establishments like nano breweries or brew pubs. This indicates that place-based branding strategies do not have the same effect across all types of craft beer makers and that size matters in the sense that being too small or too big has a negative or at least limiting impact on breweries’ performance (Carroll and Swaminathan, 2000). On the other hand, GPE and LOC references in microbreweries’ branding language results in positive public perception across all regional settings, something that has been untested in the relevant literature until now. Place-based branding strategies are not unique to craft beer, and so these findings have important implications for other industries as well. Indeed, these results are even encouraging for regions who invest in creating their own place-based branding narrative to entice firms and consumers to the region.

Hops, Skip and a Jump: The Regional Uniqueness of Beer Styles (hdl.handle.net/10197/24460) in "The Geography of Beer" (link.springer.com/book/10.1007...), explores the geographical differentiation of beer via data on regional beer recipes, styles, and ingredients by employing #EEG methods. (2/3)

The two figures plot the correlation between resiliency and either unrelated variety or average Relatedness. The y-axis is resiliency, which we measure as the percentage of nodes a network can lose before fragmenting into many unconnected components. The x-axis is either unrelated variety or average relatedness. We calculate unrelated variety using the Shannon Entropy formula following (Frenken et al., 2007). We calculate average relatedness following (Kogler et al., 2013). Points are colored according to the country of origin.

Geography and branding in the craft beer industry

Ryan M. Hynes and Dieter F. Kogler

ABSTRACT

We investigate the quantitative link between geography and branding in the craft beer space by assembling a novel dataset of tens of thousands of breweries, their marketing language, and their public perception. We use named entity recognition to process breweries’ description text, and extract the counts of geographic and location labels. We regress these counts against breweries’ rating score, which we take as a measure of public perception. We find a strong, positive link between the number of place-based labels and a brewery’s rating. This is the first large-scale quantitative result in this space, and is strong evidence of the positive link between geography, branding, and public perception. We also contribute by introducing novel data collection and text processing techniques to the regional studies and geography of beer literature. Our results confirm several previous qualitative and survey-scale studies in this space, and establish a definite link between place-based branding strategies and brewery perception.

Abstract
Perhaps more than any other product, beer evokes its place of origin. Part of what makes every pint of Guinness or stein of Paulaner so memorable is what sets them apart and gives them their unique "taste of place." This chapter explores the geographical differentiation of beer. To do so, we collect data on regional beer recipes, styles, and ingredients from a homebrewing website. We then employ Evolutionary Economic Geography (EEG) methods and create weighted co-occurrence networks for the ingredients within each style. We use these networks to identify which ingredients are most important to each beer style, measure a style’s robustness, and compare differences between geographically close and distant styles. While previous literature focuses on the related diversification of regions, we use these methods to examine the differences within the same product and across many regional styles and flavours. Combining the EEG methods with this unique ingredients dataset, we show that almost all beer styles rely on only a handful of key ingredients. Yet some regional beers are more robust than others due to readily available substitute ingredients in their region. Likewise, we demonstrate that styles originating in close geographic proximity are more similar in their use of ingredients.

It highlights challenges, including the pressure of continuous economic growth, the slow pace of decoupling growth from emissions and resource use, and whether challenge-led policies focused on growth can meet sustainability goals. Proposed solutions emphasize low-energy, low-material innovation, community-driven approaches, and aligning innovation policy with ecological and social value creation.

Hi Sarah - make sure to let us know when you are in town. Short term rentals are tricky in Dublin, especially given the chronic housing shortage we have. I would say, best to check AirBnB - a decent/small place goes for about 2k pm there, regular rentals wouldn't be any cheaper, but harder to find.
