چکیده

The main objective of this study is to identify the dynamic regional innovative features in the periphery of Europe that are hidden from the current “market failure” regional benchmarking practices. This study identifies the systemic failures in the “blue banana” regions and the performance highlights in the regions in the periphery of Europe. The paper used a systemic analytical tool that revealed important findings that characterize the European regional innovation terrain. It did a clustering statistical analysis that identified five types of regional innovation system patterns based on systemic performance weaknesses. The study exposed new modes of enhancing regional innovation capacity compared to the existing conventional and mostly linear policy implementation practices and provides benefits to policy makers in the periphery of Europe who wish to reform their innovation policies to focus on more effective results-oriented actions.
