Are cities really the engines of innovation? Together with Thilo Lang, we explore how “hidden champions” – global leaders in niche markets – are distributed across regions and operate with similar innovation dynamics regardless of location. The conversation challenges urban bias and rethinks how we understand peripherality and regional development.
Find Thilo Lang on LinkedIn, Google Scholar and the website of the Leibniz Institute for Regional Geography, where he is also the Head of the Department.
