Abstract

Als Bausteine der Wissensökonomie gelten die drei in Verbindung stehenden Faktoren Wissen, Lernen und Innovationen (OECD 1996). In den vergangenen Jahrzehnten wurde versucht, diese drei Faktoren hinsichtlich ihres systematischen Wirkungs- und Einflusszusammenhangs mittels zahlreicher innovationstheoretischer Konzepte zu beschreiben. Als ein bedeutender Bestandteil des Innovationsprozesses wurde zunächst die räumliche Nähe jeweiliger Wissensträger zueinander identifiziert. Die räumliche Nähe stellt dabei jedoch keine hinreichende Bedingung dar. Erst die Kombination mit weiteren Näheformen sowie physisch-räumlichen Gestaltungsmerkmalen lässt ihre innovationsbefördernde Wirkung entfalten. Mit dem damit erhaltenen innovationstheoretischen Prozessverständnis ging die Hoffnung einer Beeinflussbarkeit des Innovationsprozesses einher, welcher insbesondere für den wirtschaftspolitischen Bereich im Rahmen der Konstruktion lokaler Wissensinfrastrukturen von großer Bedeutsamkeit ist. Als Zeitzeugen der Entwicklung innovationstheoretischer Erkenntnisse können dabei Technologieparks (TP) herangezogen werden. Im Folgenden wird daher kurz die Entwicklung des TP-Konzepts dargestellt und zugleich sollen die von ihm ausgehenden innovationsbefördernden Auswirkungen, die durch seine spezifische Gestaltung der räumlichen Nähe entstehen, überprüft werden. Anhand von drei Fallbeispielen wird aufgezeigt, dass das TP-Konzept einer Anpassung an die innovationsbefördernden Bedarfe vor Ort ansässiger Organisationen unterliegt, jedoch zeigen die Analysen, dass nicht alle Maßnahmen und Instrumente der innovationsbefördernden Wissensvernetzung vor Ort zugutekommen.
