This consumption good is manufactured with a production function that exhibits increasing returns to scale. Our analysis leads to three results. First, we compute the growth rate of creative capital in our regional economy. Second, we show that despite the presence of increasing returns, the regional economy under study converges to a balanced growth path (BGP). Finally, we compute the growth rates of physical capital and output on the BGP.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Keywords:<\/strong> Balanced Growth Path, Creative Capital, Creative Region, Economic Growth, Increasing Returns<\/p>\n<p><strong>JEL classification:<\/strong> R11, D20<br \/>\n<em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.rsijournal.eu\/ARTICLES\/December_2016\/3.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">read more<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Amitrajeet A.
