Abstract

The mechanism and explanation of the diffusion process underlies competing and most often many complementary theorisations, which are broadly interrelated but often explicated as independent thoughts. Based on the rather integrated and multi-dimensional perspective of diffusion process, the identification of a set of determinants delivering robust explanation of diffusion and adoption pattern of new technologies is an upheaval task. It is therefore necessary to develop a conceptual framework with the objective of a broader encompassing of set of determining factors of diffusion, in particular keeping up with the ‘multi-dimensional’ perspective of the ‘process’ as highlighted in Chap. 2 . Given our focus on the role of inter-firm networking and their spatial considerations, the analytical and conceptual framework in this chapter will be tailored to address the specific issues of our research.
