Abstract:
ABSTRACT
Industry 4.0 threatens established lock-in paradigms in some districts.
In this study, we compare different innovation policies aimed at
facilitating Industry 4.0 awareness and its adoption in three
Marshallian Industrial Districts (MIDs), asking: ‘What’ types of
innovation policies work for Industry 4.0 in industrial districts? And,
where they do, ‘how’ are those innovation initiatives designed,
developed and implemented for digitizing districts? Using
qualitative evidence based on 24 interviews and the review of
existing literature concerning Industry 4.0 in three MIDs, results
show different mechanisms and approaches for creating awareness
and maximizing the diffusion of Industry 4.0 in each district, as a
result of each local ‘cognitive structure’. One size-fits-all policies are
not realistic for digitization: collective actors leading place-based
collective actions that are bottom-up and co-designed with public
and private local actors is what works best. For policymakers, this
study presents guidance for developing Industry 4.0 in MID settings.
