The analysis refers to a sample of 263 NUTS II EU regions and covers the period 1995-2008 (i.e. prior to the outburst of the economic crisis). On the basis of the latest advances of nonparametric frontier analysis, and in the presence of dynamic effects, time-dependent conditional nonparametric frontiers are developed. The incorporation of the dynamic effects of the EU regions\u2019 market potential conditions, allows for modelling the corresponding effects on technological change and technological catch-up. The findings of the paper provide valuable insight to both theory and policy-making, revealing that, within the integrated EU space, market potential acts as a technology-initiating factor, creating asymmetric effects and leaving a distinct \u201cspatial footprint\u201d with respect to the processes of technological change and technological catch-up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Keywords:<\/strong> technological change, technological catch-up, market potential, EU regions, nonparametric frontier analysis<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>JEL classification: <\/strong>C14, O3, R11<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"http:\/\/www.rsijournal.eu\/ARTICLES\/June_2021\/10.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"><em>read more<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dimitris KALLIORAS Associate Professor, Department of Planning and Regional Development, University of Thessaly, ORCID ID: 0000-0003-3060-3745 dkallior@uth.gr Nickolaos TZEREMES Associate Professor, Department of Economics, University of Thessaly,ORCID ID: 0000-0002-6938-3404 bus9nt@uth.gr Panayiotis TZEREMES Assistant Professor, Department of Accounting and Finance, University of Thessaly, ORCID ID: 0000-0002-0746-3839 tzeremes@uth.gr Maria ADAMAKOU PhD Candidate, Department of Planning and Regional&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[181],"tags":[1007,1229,1228,1230,1231,272,1226,1227],"class_list":["post-4167","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-published","tag-c14","tag-eu-regions","tag-market-potential","tag-nonparametric-frontier-analysis","tag-o3","tag-r11","tag-technological-catch-up","tag-technological-change"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/rsijournal.eu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4167","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/rsijournal.eu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/rsijournal.eu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rsijournal.eu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rsijournal.eu\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=4167"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/rsijournal.eu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4167\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4168,"href":"https:\/\/rsijournal.eu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4167\/revisions\/4168"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/rsijournal.eu\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=4167"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rsijournal.eu\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=4167"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rsijournal.eu\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=4167"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
