This study examines the rise of the technopolis--high technology-based regional development. It explores how and why these regions emerged and the policies that have been devised to promote them. The rapid, propulsive growth of the technopolis in the 1960s and 1970s caught many people by surprise. Silicon Valley arose in an agricultural area; Route 128 in a stagnant manufacturing region. Throughout the rest of the world, a new generation of regional development policies have appeared, the most common ones being science parks, small business incubators, and venture capital funds. This book surveys these policies from a comparative, critical perspective. It also develops a theoretical framework for understanding why regional high-technology development occurs and the role policy can play in the process. This work will be of interest to development planners and scholars in the fields of economic geography, development economics, and regional development.

Six years of UNESCO-World Technopolis Association workshops, held at various world cities and attended by government officials and scholars from nearly all the world’s countries, have resulted in a uniquely complete collection of reports on science park and science city projects in most of those countries. These reports, of which a selected few form chapters in this book, allow readers to compare knowledge-based development strategies, practices, and successes across countries. The chapters illustrate varying levels of cooperation across government, industry, and academic sectors in the respective projects – and the reasons and philosophies underlying this variation - and resulting differences in practices and results.

Techno-regions have generated most of the new jobs in the past decade and this technology is driving economic development; however, problems persist. This book highlights the potential pitfalls and suggests methods by which a sustainable, distinctive and prosperous technology-based regional economy can exist.

Individual decision making (e.g. deciding which type of food to eat) has recently significantly benefited from the widespread use of machine learning in artificial intelligence (AI) applications (e.g. search-friendly metadata) used by companies like Yelp, Google, Amazon, and Facebook. Nevertheless, certain goals are difficult to achieve via the collective use of AI. As a result, the centralized authority framework of control prevails, governing the factors of collective intelligence (e.g. countries, cities, neighborhoods, groups). AI gets its value from large data sets obtained from exploiting collective human interactions, mathematical models, and computing power. So, while AI is usually compared with human intelligence (e.g. Deep Blue beat chess' master in 1997 and AlphaGo beat Go's master in 2017), both complement each other more than is usually admitted. The emergence of new ideas often mimics the way natural systems survive and evolve. Some living organisms such a slime mold, ant colonies, and beehives work collectively especially when food is scarce. For instance, ant colonies follow rules written in the form of pheromones with different intensities, a “chemical alphabet” to signal specific requests and warnings, ultimately creating an autocatalytic processes that functions as a collective brain to find food and survive. By extension, the social and economic value of technological innovations for humans is comparable. Linking previously disconnected agents through electronic platforms increases the number of interactions and the number of choices available, minimizing their transaction cost. Moreover, the blurring roles of actors interacting in the cyberspace and physical space are a distinctive characteristic of the new economy (e.g. Amazon’s acquisition of Whole Foods). People work collectively producing, consuming, and improving solutions aided by Peer-to-Peer (P2P) networks, enabling the rise of self-management systems without central planning (e.g. Wikipedia, DIY bio). Democracy and human rights are notable examples of social innovations that historically challenged the status-quo. The rise of self-organizing political and economic structures without a central authority could be the next one. Moreover, if technologies are configured to enable regular, honest, and cooperative behavior through social norms and programmable trust, it can be a powerful tool for the emergence of new collective actions without central planning in neighborhoods, cities, and countries. One of the affordances of AI applications is to solve problems that scale globally such as energy and food security. AI applications are helpful, for example, by providing more efficient grid operation or an optimal inventory and delivery management system. They also reduce waste and energy consumption by supporting the operation of networked collaborative systems capable of changing the very nature of food consumption habits and improving the overall efficiency in the use of natural resources. As a result of this study, I have found that the potential development of a self-organizing homemade food market in neighborhoods could improve the energy efficiency of the food system, allowing energy savings equal to 1.2 percent of the total energy used by a city’s food system. To support the development of such a market, tools used in AI applications such as sentiment analysis and the Blockchain, can play a significant role in their ability to anticipate market needs, and provide a secure, transparent, and efficient transaction platforms. Therefore, these AI tools can have a significant impact in reducing the need of trustees such as banks and companies that provide access to peer-to-peer service platforms like Uber and Airbnb.

"By far the most sophisticated treatment of industrial structure and spatial organization in the Southern California manufacturing system. The analysis powerfully combines cogent historical narratives, revealing statistical profiles, and incisive empirical and theoretical discussion. . . . Long overdue given the region's obvious importance to the American and world economies."--Richard Gordon, University of California, Santa Cruz "By far the most sophisticated treatment of industrial structure and spatial organization in the Southern California manufacturing system.

This book addresses how forward-thinking local communities are integrating pre-college STEM education, STEM pedagogy, industry clusters, college programs, and local, state and national policies to improve educational experiences, drive local development, gain competitive advantage for the communities, and lead students to rewarding careers. This book consists of three sections: foundational principles, city/regional case studies from across the globe, and state and national context. The authors explore the hypothesis that when pre-college STEM education is integrated with city and regional development, regions can drive a virtuous cycle of education, economic development, and quality of life. Why should pre-college STEM education be included in regional technology policy? When local leaders talk about regional policy, they usually talk about how government, universities and industry should work together. This relationship is important, but what about the hundreds of millions of pre-college students, taught by tens of millions of teachers, supported by hundreds of thousands of volunteers, who deliver STEM education around the world? Leaders in the communities featured in STEM in the Technopolis have recognized the need to prepare students at an early age, and the power of real-world connections in the process. The authors advocate for this approach to be expanded. They describe how STEM pedagogy, priority industry clusters, cross-sector collaboration, and the local incarnations of global development challenges can be made to work together for the good of all citizens in local communities. This book will be of interest to government policymakers, school administrators, industry executives, and non-profit executives. The book will be useful as a reference to teachers, professors, industry professional volunteers, non-profit staff, and program leaders who are developing, running, or teaching in STEM programs or working to improve quality of life in their communities.
