	Regional studies, within the domain of business sciences in particular, have experienced a true rebirth in the past decades. They have been attached a heightened relevance and popularity after a period in which the relevance of space was negated through global and strongly simplified perspectives. The national and the international level alike are still characterised by strong regional differences, which need a lot of explanations. Moreover, the aspect of knowledge transfer and learning has been increasingly focused on the regional point of view and has been integrated into more recent regional theories. Conceptual designs of learning regions, regional systems of innovation and of innovative milieus are only some examples of new concepts that incorporate learning and knowledge transfer as regional phenomena.
