Summary: | The goal of the paper is to identify the essential determinants of enterprises’ growth in a peripheral
region, with regard to particular patterns of regional development. Literature studies have been conducted
to recognise the patterns and determinants of the development in question. Characteristics of lagging
regions have been provided in the first section, while another section contains a discussion on aspects
related to enterprises’ growth in non-core regions. The main finding is associated with a crucial value
of innovation, knowledge spillovers, as well as social and human capital as fundamental for enterprises
facing scarcity of regional endogenous resources. Thus, necessary actions should be taken for promoting
enterprises’ networking and internalisation. Entrepreneurial attitudes, notably of young generation, should
be supported. The findings may be interesting for entrepreneurs and regional policymakers. |
