The Dutch government has been advised to define hotspots of national importance to the Dutch economy, in order to give them support (AWTI, 2014). Campuses can be clusters for economic activity, where spill-overs can occur. An important empirical question is whether the most spill-over effects come from specialization or diversifying regional economies (Frenken et al., 2007). The literature is ambiguous about which type of economy is best for a region. Therefore was the aim of this research to see what type of campus performs best in attracting businesses, different company sizes and employment. Also a comparison is made with the performance of non-campus (i.e. municipalities) areas to understand if their performance followed the general trend in the Dutch economy. date: 2017 date_type: published thesis_type: master degree_programme: EG tutors_name: dr.
