Abstract

The world has seen an increasing number of science parks since the 1980s, but still lacks systematised accumulated knowledge about science parks. The current study probes the terms and definitions of science park schemes, and analyses the half-a-century development and evaluation of the science park phenomenon. It exposes the increasing functions that science parks have been expected to perform due to the change of major promoters from being universities to governments. It also depicts science park typology, namely park/campus style, centre/incubator style and city/region style. Findings concerned are helpful for science park developers and managers, particularly latecomers.
