Cognitive similarity and the regional development of inventions: heterogeneity across renewable energy technologies
2024 Rosina Moreno, Diego Ocampo, Vayana Skabrin
This paper finds that the development of inventions in renewable energy technologies seems to arise from cognitively similar knowledge located in the region, this being more the case in the last years (from 2010 onwards). However, despite this general conclusion, we observe a certain variability across technologies within the renewable energy realm. Our findings suggest […]

The Role of Relatedness and Unrelatedness for the Geography of Technological Breakthroughs in Europe
2022 Ron Boschma, Ernest Miguelez, Rosina Moreno, Diego Ocampo
This article proposes a framework to study how the existing knowledge portfolio of regional economies affects the emergence and occurrence of breakthrough technologies. The study discusses the relevance of cognitive distance between the technology of a breakthrough invention and the existing technological base in their geographic vicinity. Theoretically, it introduces the idea that both relatedness […]

Knowledge flows and technologies in renewable energies at the regional level in Europe
2020 Diego Ocampo, Rosina Moreno, Jordi Suriñach
This study provides a new insight into the impact of knowledge flows for renewable energy (RE) technologies. With patent data for the European regions in the period 2000–10, we observe that RE technologies have more analytical knowledge content than the rest of the technologies. They also seem to benefit highly from both scientific knowledge flows […]

Consecuencias de la violencia doméstica contra la mujer en el progreso escolar de los niños y niñas del Perú
2016 Lorena Alcazar, Diego Ocampo
Violence against women is a major problem that not only has enormous consequences for the direct victims. It also disrupts the entire family environment, and undermines the integral development of boys and girls. Using data from the Demographic and Family Health Survey (ENDES), this study estimates the effect that gender-based violence has on the probability […]

2013 Lorena Alcazar, Diego Ocampo, Lucio Huamán-Espino, Juan Pablo Aparco
Objectives. To estimate the economic impact of chronic, acute and global malnutrition in Peru. Materials and methods. This study, through an econometric model, estimated the economic impact of child malnutrition in two time horizons (incidental retrospective and prospective) during 2011, considering malnutrition-associated costs of health, education and productivity for the Peruvian economy. Information collected is […]
