Abstract
It is probably correct to say that David Audretsch’s impressive research oeuvre demonstrates a strong interest in the question of where new ideas and knowledge come from, and why and how they matter for the modern economy and society as a whole. This obviously concerns research on patents, universities and scientists, industry structure, finance, public policy, and knowledge spillover processes. This chapter describes how David was always willing to stretch a hand across the academic aisle, constantly willing to embrace a true multidisciplinary mindset.
