This book looks at the uncharted territory between innovation activities and place making efforts to cultivate them. ‘Geographies of Disruption’ aims to fill that gap by exploring the growing importance of place making for knowledge generation and innovation activities in contemporary cities, and providing an in-depth understanding of both theoretical and practical aspects of innovation geographies and the conditions that help their emergence and growth. This book underlines the growing importance of knowledge generation and innovation activities for the competitiveness of cities and their regions. It provides an in-depth and comprehensive understanding of both theoretical and practical aspects of knowledge-based urban development and its implications and prospects for cities and regions. This pioneering book contributes to the conceptualisation and practice of innovation geographies by disseminating both conceptual and empirical research findings with real-world best practice applications. With a multidisciplinary approach to themes of technology and urban development, this book is a key reference source for scholars, practitioners, consultants, city officials, policymakers and innovation study enthusiasts.

“​This volume, ‘Geographies of Disruption’, provides a timely contribution to the literature on the geography of innovation. It is both theoretically rich and empirically grounded, providing a detailed set of case studies on the evolving dimensions of the knowledge economy across Europe, North America, Asia and Oceania, as well as detailed case studies of innovation hubs within the knowledge precincts of cities in those regions. It focuses on the importance of place making for the emergence and spread of knowledge-based economies and delivers important insights for both scholars and practitioners on the underlying dynamics linking the innovation economy to its urban setting.” (Professor David Wolfe, University of Toronto, Toronto, Canada)“Geographies of Disruption’ is a comprehensive and yet accessible book. Two experts on the geography of innovation and smart cities from Australia and Finland joined forces to develop a clearly written and profound analysisof innovation-geography symbiosis, including theoretical advances in knowledge economies and empirical evidence from cities and regions in the advanced industrialized economies. In-depth case studies of the Nordic model and best practice knowledge cities such as Brisbane and Melbourne, Australia, Barcelona, Spain, Austin and Silicon Valley, USA and Singapore, as well as useful benchmarking of select knowledge precincts from Finland, Ireland, The Netherlands, and the UK. A must read for policymakers and students of economic development, geography and urban planning.” (Professor Yuko Aoyama, Clark University, Massachusetts, USA) “It is a pleasure to welcome ‘Geographies of Disruption’ to the libraries and bookshelves of scholarly urban planners, economic geographers and spatial policymakers. Professional absorptive capacity has, in general, been slow to respond to disruptions to housing markets, retail markets, the ‘hollowing out’ of industry and the inadequacies of infrastructure. Drawing on good practice case-material from a wide variety of transitioning cities, the book also explains with illuminating theory, the causes and consequences of contemporary urban disruptiveness and responses to them in an accessible and practicable way.”  (Professor Philip Cooke, the Mohn Centre for Innovation and Regional Development, Bergen, Norway) “Geographies of Disruption’ is a seminal original contribution to the emerging field of innovation geography. It sets out to highlight the pervasive importance of a knowledge-based economy for place-based development, especially in an urban context. In addition to a framing of this new challenging field, this book offers also a wealth of informed empirical studies on several cities all over the world. For both academics, students and practitioners this study offers many novel and useful insights.”  (Professor Peter Nijkamp, Jheronimus Academy of Data Science, 's-Hertogenbosch, The Netherlands) “This book, ‘Geographies of Disruption’, provides a comprehensive overview of innovation and place-making in contemporary cities around the world, providing a wealth of illustrative case examples and practical and policy recommendations for different stakeholders. An engaging and useful read for academics and practitioners alike.” (Professor Rob Kitchin, Maynooth University, Maynooth, Ireland)
