The document discusses national innovation systems and knowledge flows within them. It analyzes four types of knowledge flows: 1) interactions among enterprises, 2) interactions between enterprises, universities and research institutions, 3) technology diffusion to enterprises, and 4) personnel mobility. It finds that higher levels of collaboration, diffusion and mobility contribute to improved enterprise innovation in products, patents and productivity. It also examines different approaches to analyzing innovation systems, including surveys, cluster analysis, and international knowledge flows. Future research aims to improve indicators for mapping interactions and linkages to firm and country innovation performance.
