Abstract :
[en] This contribution explores the evolution of the red and green biotechnology cluster in the bioRegion of Flanders (Belgium), in particular in the Ghent innovation district - Tech Lane Ghent - building on (1) the economywide country study by Segers (2017) on the interplay between new and innovative biotechnology firms, the influence of strategic alliances (interfirm partnerships) with large (global) pharmaceutical companies and the role that open innovation might play in the further reinforcement of these relationships within regional biotechnology clusters (bioRegions); (2) the methodology on innovation districts provided by Katz and Wagner (2014) and Wagner, Katz and Osha (2019), defining the innovation district as an urban geography of innovation that sits at the intersection of economy-shaping, place-making, and network-building and as a geographic area where anchor institutions and companies cluster and connect with small firms, start-ups, business incubators and accelerators.
