Abstract

This article discusses the role of proximity in the process of knowledge transfer in determining the innovation capacity of firms, using data from a direct survey of 41 agro-food firms in Burgundy. The authors identify different types of firms according to their international potential and the networks they belong to. Beyond the geographical proximity, organizational proximity between firms and scientific and technical centres.
