Transforming Professional Services to Build Regional Innovation EcosystemsSean M. O'ConnorUniversity of Washington School of Law May 7, 2012 Evolving Economies: The Role of Law in Innovation and Entrepreneurship (Megan M. Carpenter ed., Edward Elgar Publishing, 2012 Forthcoming) University of Washington School of Law Research Paper No. 2012-07 Abstract: This book chapter seeks to expand the innovation ecosystems literature to focus on three themes. First, that a broader and deeper account of professional services is required to understand successful innovation ecosystems. Second, that attorneys have a central, yet bifurcated, presence in innovation ecosystems as either specialists or “targeted generalists." And third, that regional professional schools can play a central role in transforming professional services in local economies to provide the necessary innovation ecosystem that will allow (pre)industrial economies to evolve into knowledge economies.
