The evolution of R&D networking in the biotech industries
by Andreas Pyka, Paolo Saviotti
International Journal of Entrepreneurship and Innovation Management (IJEIM), Vol. 5, No. 1/2, 2005

Abstract: The paper deals with the evolution of R&D networks in the biopharmaceutical industries. For this purpose, an agent-based-computational model towards evolutionary economics is developed which is able to generate results which closely correspond to developments in the real world. With this approach, the permanent nature of R&D networks in the industrial organisation of innovation processes in this increasingly important industry as well as the coexistence of large diversified firms and dedicated biotechnology firms, can be explained.
