This edited volume examines how high-technology adoption, productivity improvements and networking (local and global linkages) can foster the development of small and medium‑sized enterprises (SMEs). It presents empirical studies and policy‑oriented analysis across regions — from Europe to Latin America and the U.S. — investigating innovation systems, tech‑based start‑ups, firms’ productivity strategies, business support services, and the role of social capital and networks in SME competitiveness and growth.
