摘要：

Regions matter for innovative behaviour. Compared to firms in rural regions, firms in urban agglomerations of the Netherlands dedicate a higher share of their R&D to product (rather than process) development. Moreover, in our Hurdle Count Data estimate of determinants of new product announcements we find that, with a given product R&D intensity, firms in central regions have higher probabilities of announcing at least one new product in a journal and they also announce new products in larger numbers. The results add to the literature on regional knowledge spillovers.
