Heterogeneous Development Paths to Growth and Innovation: The Evolution of the Video Game Industry across Four Hubs

Economic Research Working Paper No.84

This study explores the evolution and success drivers of the global video game industry, focusing on key hubs within Finland, Poland, Japan, and the United States.
