Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past decade, there has been a rapid rise and recognition of technology clusters, innovation hubs, and technology precincts. Clusters are not a new phenomenon, and they are considered to promote specialised activities within local regions to allow networks of associated firms to develop their productivity and innovation for global competition. This thesis examined Level Two, a deep technology cluster in Auckland, New Zealand. The purpose of this study was to determine how Level Two, has impacted the New Zealand economy. Specifically, the research develops the history of Level Two including past and present firms that are part of the cluster. The key questions that direct this study are: How has the Level Two cluster impacted the New Zealand economy? How has the Level Two cluster impacted firms that are or were part of the cluster? The study followed a qualitative case study methodology and utilised semi-structured interviews as the primary data collection source. There was a secondary data gathering phase in order to provide supporting evidence and to gather basic information regarding the cluster and associated firms to build the case. Sixteen interviews were conducted and evidence supporting the high-level themes of variation, effectiveness and measures of success for a cluster are presented in the primary findings. The findings were discussed in relation to the literature and case description. The research found that the Level Two cluster has significantly impacted the New Zealand economy by providing a space that was needed by deep technology start-ups and companies in the growthstage. The firms associated with the Level Two cluster have led to just under NZ$1 billion in economic growth for the New Zealand economy. Level Two has had a significant impact on tenant firms leading to increased pace of development and providing access to networks among other benefits.

Download or read book The Economics and Science of Measurement written by Albert N. Link and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2021-07-08 with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Metrology is the study of measurement science. Although classical economists have emphasized the importance of measurement per se, the majority of economics-based writings on the topic have taken the form of government reports related to the activities of specific national metrology laboratories. This book is the first systematic study of measurement activity at a national metrology laboratory, and the laboratory studied is the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) within the U.S. Department of Commerce. The primary objective of the book is to emphasize for academic and policy audiences the economic importance of measurement not only as an area of study but also as a tool for sustaining technological advancement as an element of economic growth. Toward this goal, the book offers an overview of the economic benefits and consequences of measurement standards; an argument for public sector support of measurement standards; a historical perspective of the measurement activities at NIST; an empirical analysis of one particular measurement activity at NIST, namely calibration testing; and a roadmap for future research on the economics of metrology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a brilliant intellectual adventure that ranges from David Ricardo and Adam Smith to economic geography and the science of complex networks, Shaun Hendy and Paul Callaghan explore how New Zealanders can learn to live off knowledge rather than nature. The key to increasing New Zealand's prosperity, they argue, is innovation in high-tech niches. To catch up with the countries that lure young Kiwis away, New Zealand needs to start innovating like a city of four million people; it needs to start taking science seriously; it needs to start seeing its people as people of learning, not just of the land. Get off the Grass provides a readable introduction to a wide variety of ideas including economic geography, network theory, and complexity theory; offers unique insights into the New Zealand economy and its long-term prospects; adds to current debates worldwide about innovation, science, economic growth, and networks.

Download or read book Prophets of Computing written by Dick van Lente and published by Morgan & Claypool. This book was released on 2022-12-14 with total page 556 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When electronic digital computers first appeared after World War II, they appeared as a revolutionary force. Business management, the world of work, administrative life, the nation state, and soon enough everyday life were expected to change dramatically with these machines’ use. Ever since, diverse prophecies of computing have continually emerged, through to the present day. As computing spread beyond the US and UK, such prophecies emerged from strikingly different economic, political, and cultural conditions. This volume explores how these expectations differed, assesses unexpected commonalities, and suggests ways to understand the divergences and convergences. This book examines thirteen countries, based on source material in ten different languages—the effort of an international team of scholars. In addition to analyses of debates, political changes, and popular speculations, we also show a wide range of pictorial representations of "the future with computers."
