Our findings suggest that knowledge inputs and the share of innovative firms have a heterogeneous and nonlinear relationship with growth. This evidence has been exploited to examine the consequences of alternative policies using a counterfactual estimation setup, the results of which imply that increasing the formal knowledge base may be optimal in most regions. Less knowledge and innovation intensive regions will also benefit from a higher innovation potential and from a trustworthy and entrepreneurial economic environment. 000147865 536__ $$9info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/DGA/S16-ADETRE$$9info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MINECO/ECO2013-45969-P 000147865 540__ $$9info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess$$aAll rights reserved$$uhttp://www.europeana.eu/rights/rr-f/ 000147865 590__ $$a1.743$$b2016 000147865 591__ $$aECONOMICS$$b81 / 347 = 0.233$$c2016$$dQ1$$eT1 000147865 591__ $$aPLANNING & DEVELOPMENT$$b19 / 55 = 0.345$$c2016$$dQ2$$eT2 000147865 591__ $$aENVIRONMENTAL STUDIES$$b50 / 105 = 0.476$$c2016$$dQ2$$eT2 000147865 592__ $$a1.409$$b2016 000147865 593__ $$aEnvironmental Science (miscellaneous)$$c2016$$dQ1 000147865 593__ $$aDevelopment$$c2016$$dQ1 000147865 655_4 $$ainfo:eu-repo/semantics/article$$vinfo:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersion 000147865 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0001-8973-6804$$aVera-Cabello, M. 000147865 7102_ $$14000$$2415$$aUniversidad de Zaragoza$$bDpto.
