Innovation in Chains and Networks

In this editorial contribution I will sketch a theoretical framework for research on innovation in chains and networks. Interested research groups around the world can use this information to determine whether it is of interest for them to participate in cooperative research with our group in Wageningen. For it is our ambition to build a worldwide virtual knowledge centre on innovation in chains and networks.
