Unlike for other baskets, our two-dimensional weighted intensity vs average distance typology shows for the knowledge basket two strong clusters of long- and short-range, highly intensive regions. The first cluster of long-range, highly intensive regions is located in Finland. There are also a few single regions of this type, including Iceland, Trøndelag (Norway), Cyprus, Lisbon, and Athens. The second highly in-tensive, short-range cluster is the German-Swiss patent “kingdom”, but there are also some other individual regions of this type in the Benelux and Austria. The rest of ESPON space is mostly of moderate (Western Europe) or non-intensive (Central and Eastern Europe) medium range.
