A description of how Media X serves as Stanford’s catalyst for innovation at the intersection of people and technology – across departments, and between university and business. Using socially constructed data, parsed from data retrieved from online English-language press releases, network analysis shows patterns of organizational infrastructure. The cultivation approach to global investments into Chinese technology-based companies is contrasted with the harvesting approach of Chinese investments into the rest of the world. Critical implications for board interlocks and flows of information are discussed. Research conducted at Media X at Stanford University, by Martha G. Russell, Neil Rubens, Kaisa Still, Jukka Huhtamaki

45. Silicon Valley The region’s economic power is a product of its past as well as its present, of military contracts as well as venture capital. Silicon Valley is an economically mature region whose childhood and adolescence were paid for by U.S. tax dollars – adaptation occurred on this foundation. “People change jobs here without even changing car pools.” “You could quit your job on Friday and have another one on Monday. You didn’t even have to tell you wife. You just drove off in another direction on Monday. You didn’t have to sell your house. Your kids didn’t even have to change schools.” http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.yorku.ca/anderson/Images/silicon_valley_3.jpg&imgrefurl=http://techiteasy.org/2007/02/13/&h=527&w=789&sz=108&hl=en&start=10&sig2=UfKH0Wg_EQFky-uYElh5Ug&um=1&usg=__j8qR006bzWFHYZznsPAAsLyIWlM=&tbnid=69kwEoq1mPXIiM:&tbnh=96&tbnw=143&ei=CEnaSOHnIJCksQOR1fnTAw&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dsilicon%2Bvalley%2Bpicture%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DX

So the new maps may be based on the connections; rather than on distance.For this analysis we have utilized an open source tool called NodeXL
So far I have shown analysis based on the spatial distance;However the aspects of distance is changing;We don’t know where these people are physically located but they seem to be in the same space.
At the core of this research we have what initially were called “regional technology-based economic development”– however each of the three parts has experienced changes, which calls for updating the whole concept
Now let me briefly describe a case of how we utilized the above mentioned principles.In our project we try to understand innovation, so have gathered the data on companies, people and money.What makes this data set different, besides its timeliness is the majority of data (thanks to social media) is about small companies having between 1 – 5 employees.A lot of innovation happens there so it is important to track.
This map indicates the location of the companies. Size of circle indicates number of companies.For this part of analysis we have used Tableau Software.
At the core of this research we have what initially were called “regional technology-based economic development”– however each of the three parts has experienced changes, which calls for updating the whole concept
This shows how we have evolved from the local/regional activities
This shows how the models of innovations have evolved reflecting the changes
