"The triple helix model and dynamics of innovation: a case study", «Journal of Knowledge-based Innovation in China», 4(1), 36-54. http://dx.doi.org/10.1108/17561411211208758.1756-1418 (Print)http://hdl.handle.net/10400.3/2317Copyright © 2012 Emerald Group Publishing Limited.The purpose of this paper is to analyze the dynamics of the triple helix model in less favoured regions, examining the role of three spheres: universities, firms, and government. The paper identifies profiles of behavior in terms of triple helix model performance from the firm's perspective and recognizes key factors for successful innovation dynamics in a less favored region of Portugal.engPortugalRegional DevelopmentInnovationUniversitiesOrganizationsGovernmentTriple HelixCooperationjournal article2013-10-15
