AI adoption in the Netherlands isn't spreading evenly, it's concentrating in cities. This new study on Dutch municipalities (2012–2020) shows early adopters stay ahead, with no signs of convergence. Path dependency is driving regional inequality. #AI #RegionalEcon #Innovation @rsaeurope.bsky.social

The paper acknowledges emerging varieties of innovation maps, but also pushes for more work in three directions: Spatial analyses can capture innovation journeys, maps of innovation can be more inclusive and normative lenses can be used to account for the spatially uneven impact of innovation. 2/2

Spatial Economic Analysis @spatialeconomic.bsky.social · 14/04/2025

The article answers the questions: - how we map innovation: maps are not descriptive exercises, they are powerful illustrations that capture and shape what we value - Are maps of innovation capturing the changing perspectives on what innovation is and why it matters? 1/2

Policymakers often obsess over infrastructure, but ignore the behavioural roots of regional stagnation. Without changing mindsets, no amount of money is likely to fix economic decline. It’s time to focus on decision-making cultures. #EconomicDevelopment #PossibilityThinking 5/5
