Emerging specializations, competences and firms' proximity in digital industries: The case of London

In order to overcome the limitations of defining industrial specializations in digital industries through SIC codes, this paper suggests measuring the specializations and competences of these industries on the basis of the degree of digital technologies present in the products and services supplied. Metadata from CrunchBase are employed, as proxies of firms’ specializations and competences which are defined as the fields of activity in which firms are involved. Applying a network analysis, these specializations and competences are linked to the recognition of emerging digital technologies and the strongest combinations of products and services. We tested the proposed methodology on London, a leading centre for the digital economy.

Al fine di superare i limiti della definizione delle specializzazioni industriali nelle industrie digitali attraverso i codici SIC, questo documento suggerisce di misurare le specializzazioni e le competenze di queste industrie sulla base del grado di tecnologie digitali presenti nei prodotti e servizi forniti. I metadati di CrunchBase sono impiegati come proxy delle specializzazioni e delle competenze delle aziende che sono definite come i campi di attività in cui le aziende sono coinvolte. Applicando una network analysis, queste specializzazioni e competenze sono legate al riconoscimento delle tecnologie digitali emergenti e delle più forti combinazioni di prodotti e servizi. Abbiamo testato la metodologia proposta su Londra, centro di riferimento per l’economia digitale.
