Applicability of Territorial Innovation Models to Declining Resource-Based Regions: Lessons from the Northern Peninsula of Newfoundland
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Resource dependent rural regions often struggle in the face of globalization and the movement towards a knowledge-based economy. Drawing on new regionalist literature related to territorial innovation models, this paper investigates the applicability of regional innovation systems and the quadruple helix of government, university, industry and community collaboration in innovation within the Great Northern Peninsula of Newfoundland and Labrador, a struggling rural resource-based region. The research finds key factors, including a weak and dispersed private sector and a lack of resources at the municipal level, limit the effectiveness of territorial innovation model recommendations to spur innovation. Other elements of territorial innovation models related to learning, network facilitation, increased knowledge flows and connections with post-secondary institutions, and development of a shared vision and action plan could, however, benefit the region. Keywords: rural; territorial innovation models; regional innovation systems; quadruple helix Applicabilite des modeles d'innovation territoriaux sur le declin des regions a ressources: lecons de la peninsule septentrionale de Terre-Neuve Resume Les regions rurales dependantes des ressources luttent souvent face a la mondialisation et au mouvement vers une economie de la connaissance. S'appuyant sur une nouvelle litterature regionaliste liee aux modeles d'innovation territoriale, cet article examine l'applicabilite des systemes d'innovation regionaux et la quadruple helice de la collaboration gouvernementale, universitaire, industrielle et communautaire dans l'innovation dans la grande peninsule du nord de Terre-Neuve-et-Labrador, une region rurale en difficulte basee sur les ressources. La recherche revele que des facteurs cles, notamment un secteur prive faible et disperse ainsi qu'un manque de ressources au niveau municipal, limitent l'efficacite des recommandations du modele d'innovation territoriale pour stimuler l'innovation. D'autres elements des modeles d'innovation territoriale lies a l'apprentissage, a la facilitation des reseaux, a l'augmentation des flux de connaissances et des liens avec les etablissements d'enseignement postsecondaire, ainsi qu'a l'elaboration d'une vision et d'un plan d'action partages pourraient toutefois beneficier a la region.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
