Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Book Chapter Description
Although the concept of the ecosystem for entrepreneurs and startups dominates the discourse on promoting innovation, the geographical pattern of cities with startups remains largely uncharted territory. This study’s author first gives an overview of this concept’s roots in regional sciences and then outlines the contours of Europe’s scaleup geography by analyzing data on 12,500 scaleups (startups that raised more than 1 million euros) at the municipal level. Performance is marked by a strong West-East and North-South divide, and most scaleups and funding concentrate in a handful of cities. One may assume some convergence, however, from the upstream of locally available talent, especially in university towns. The study’s author concludes that scaleup ecosystems in Europe have only developed into a self-reinforcing system in a few cities. Although they have become self-sustaining in a multitude of Western and Northern European cities, large cities in Southern Europe and Central and Eastern Europe lag behind, not least because of the weak upstream of university talent.
