Introduction:

World seems like a small village and everywhere competition has been increased due to impact of
globalization. Besides, innovation becomes one of most important weapon to increase countries
economic growth and jobs by considering knowledge. Therefore, countries has been developed different
types of research center and standard education system as well as government develop various policies
support. Regional innovation system stands for localization process and in the area where innovation
and knowledge formation take place (Moulaert and Sekia 2003; Asheimand Gertler 20005). This report
ambitions to analysis Regional Innovation System of a country where Tesla, Inc. can start up a new lap
by considering that countries RIS advantages like- government policies ,R&D center , knowledge and
Educations support, innovation behaviors of a firm. The Founder of Tesla, Inc. Elon Musk believe that
innovation is one of the magical key for any business solution (Holmberg, 2011), and in terms of tight
competitions of amongst companies only innovation is the way to enjoy competitive advantages.

Company Overview:

Tesla has been started journey in 2003 by a group of engineers who desired to innovated electric
vehicles which can be drive to complete peoples comfort zone such as- electric vehicles can be more
standard than fuel car, more fun to drive and more quicker than fuel or gasoline vehicles. Recently, Tesla
builds different types of electric vehicles, scalable clean energy as well as storage products. In 2008
Tesla launched, the Roadster disclosed Tesla's forefront battery innovation and electric powertrain.
From that point, Tesla structured the world's first since forever premium all electric vehicle starting from
the earliest stage – Model S – which has become the best vehicle in its group in each class. Joining
wellbeing, execution, and proficiency, Model S has reset the world's desires for the vehicle of the 21st
century with the longest scope of any electric vehicle, over-the-air programming refreshes that improve
it after some time, and a record 0-60 mph speeding up time of 2.28 seconds as estimated by Motor
Trend.
RIS (Regional Innovation System)

The literature on regional innovation systems emphasizes the role of the region as locus for
interactive learning and knowledge exchange, stressing the importance of (geographical)
proximity for innovation. Even though the importance of extra-regional knowledge is widely
acknowledged, there has been only little emphasis on the particular role and the nature of
global knowledge flows. The aim of this chapter is to explore the differentiated nature of global
knowledge flows in regional innovation systems. We provide an overview of the different ways
firms can gain access to global knowledge sources. Identified knowledge sourcing channels
include international R&D collaborations, foreign direct investments, personally embedded
relationships, international mobility of skilled labour, virtual communities and online platforms,
and the participation in temporary clusters such as fairs, exhibitions, and conference

A regional innovation system stands for institutional infrastructure supporting to innovate new
production process in a prime location. When an MNC company would like to expand business
by introducing new product line in a new location at that moment company analytical sense
involved with the collaboration of between research units, universities, R& D centers and make
sure interactive learning with customer and suppliers as well as flexible team ( Asheim and
Gertler, 2004:299). By considering RIS Sweden’s Gothenburg is one of most possible location to
start up a new research center due to availability of automobile and transport facility, ICT
support, Energy support etc.

Business people and approach producers’ agreement has since quite a while ago proposed that
advancement is a vital factor in creating financial development and improvement. Similarly,
there is boundless proof respects the lopsided spatial circulation of inventive conduct between
various geological regions and, specifically, between various districts on the planet. These
intermittent examples have brought social researchers and approach producers to give
expanding consideration to areas as assigned destinations of advancement and aggressiveness
in the globalizing economy (Florida 1995; Cooke et al. 1997), pushing examination to
concentrate on the interrelationships between innovation, development and mechanical area.
Now a day’s Automobile industry is analysis on vehicle operations to make safe and clean
environment, controlling traffic and user friendly as well as less monetary expanse. Therefore,
Automobile companies passionate to innovate new vehicle like- electric car. However, majority
of accident are caused by human factor so Tesla, In. commitment to develop Autonomous
Vehicles by using modern technology which will bring huge benefits in the society and
transportation system. However, By considering Gothenburg remarkable supports of
Automobile industry Tesla, In. can start up new R&D center on Autonomous driving car center
(Business Region Gothenburg, 2019).

Current Innovation Polices and Strategy of Gothenburg

In the case of innovation policies national institutions act direct impact on innovative actions
and most of the case regional polices designed by the regional authorities where polices aim to
become a part of regional institutional framework for regional development. Gothenburg is
one of the innovative region all over in the world. Gothenburg business region will served
business knowledge and contacts to make the idea real. In the report EU innovation scoreboard
2015; recommended Sweden to increase investment in human capital and R&D sectors to
increase massive innovation work to create new job both internal and external.

Therefore, If Tesla, In. set up new R&D center in Gothenburg definitely organization will get
necessary support from the Government (Business Region Gothenburg, 2019).

A synthetic knowledge introduce an industry that will develop innovation by use and new
combination of existing knowledge and intention to solve practical problems ( Asheim and Gertler
2005). So far from 2019 end of the year, Tesla is planned to convert all warehouse into major
R&D lab and establish vehicle testing facility Lab to improve reliability (Lambert & Lambert,
2020). By considering Tesla’s In new R&D lab building innovation system, Gothenburg will be
best location to establish R&D hub because of the world largest automobile industry which is
most knowledge incentive to vehicle development, huge number of mobile workforce including
closely 30,000 technology and IT consultant, vehicle value chain, unique test environment and
autonomous technology support influence to build innovative product (Business Region
Gothenburg, 2019).
Gothenburg business economics has in a leading position trade finance and treasury
management. In finance sector such as commercial and saving banks; including SEB, Swedbank
along with financial institutions keep contribution. Other hand Gothenburg University’s
Business school, Economic and Law department contribution to maintain sustainable financial
infrastructure.

Regional support organizations which influence Tesla, In. to establish New R&D center in
Gothenburg

RIs support organizations includes the firm such as – research institute and university conducting R&D
and education and government agencies conducting with different policy supports .

MobilityXlab is a foundation where Ericson, Autoliv, Volvo Group and Cars, Zenuity and CEVT
work together. This platform offered startup and companies working space and funding
companies in order to finding solution for future transportation. So, this support can be great
opportunity for Tesla, In. to establish new R&D center in Gothenburg (Business Region
Gothenburg, 2019).

Lindholemen Science Park continuously run Vehicle ICT Arena system where opportunity for
innovation and human resource success management in Vehicle IT which assistance safe
Swedish competitiveness in sustainable and safe mobility. Therefore, Tesla. In will get skilled
full and experience employees which will helps to sustain productivity (Business Region
Gothenburg, 2019).

Telematics Valley supports regional development of companies and use advance technology in
the telematics field (Business Region Gothenburg, 2019).

Safer (Vehicle and Trafic Safety Center) originations acts core center for road safety research in
traffic environment. By considering Safer acts Tesla, In. can formulate new Autonomous driving
car operating system (Lars Bern,2019)
Al Innovation of Sweden is a national research hub work for all research and innovation,
involving industrial partner and academia where all has opportunity to share ideas, resources
and data. This national research hub can help Tesla’s In. by providing data and resources to
start new R&D center (Hammarkullen, 2016)

National Innovation Research and Education System

National innovation system (NIS) is characterized by internationalized research; industrial


orientation towards resource-intensive industries; speedy adoption of latest techniques; high
expenditures on education; and a comparatively expensive economic system. Massive
authorities motor-assisted by little ministries dominate the governmental a part of this
technique. The authorities area unit freelance units whose task is to hold out the plans of the
govt, however conjointly to initiate relevant comes of their own, aiming at a selected goal. Most
of the responsibility is allotted to the authorities instead of the ministries. Therefore, In
Gothenburg automobile industry is booming gradually and major automobile companies are
investing large amount of money for R&D facilities and forming strategic partnership system;
for an example – China’s Geely is developing a new 120000 sq meter innovation and other hand
VOLVO is work together private and public sector and testing exclusively eutectic and emission
free buses in order to support city’s public transport system. In the meantime Volvo cars is
innovated self-deriving technology and testing prototype vehicles in the Gothenburg roads.
According to Joel Gorsch, Investment Advisor automobile and celentech; Gothenburg is
undergoing great transformation in automobile industry and claiming world prominent position
automobile technology, electrification, safety and connected vehicles (Business Region
Gothenburg, 2019)
Research in the traditional of worldwide business (Fernhaber et al. 2008; Johanson and Vahlne
2009) gives various signs on how firms may get to information all around. Regularly, much
consideration has been dedicated to outside direct ventures (FDI) and the topic of whether
innovation and information moves inside worldwide undertakings (MNEs) are related with
overflows into the area (Fosfuri et al. 2001; Balsvik 2011; Henderson 2007; Belderbos et al.
2008; G€org and Strobl 2005; Gorg and Greenway 2004). As of late, it has been recognized that
globalization of advancement isn't restricted to MNEs and FDI, and more consideration has
been paid to different kinds of information linkages. For example, redistributing of R&D to
remote accomplices may give the premise to learning at home (D'Agostino et al. 2012) and for
more grounded, increasingly dedicated worldwide linkages to frame at later stages (Maskell et
al. 2007). Of specific significance among these is advancement coordinated effort (Herstad and
Ebersberger 2015).

Research is of essential significance to the nature of advanced education. An elevated level of


information and mastery in the work power is consequently subject to fantastic research in
Sweden, just as of the ability to take advantage of and utilize new information beginning from
different nations. In Sweden, advance education and skills are vital requisites for locating
employment. In Sweden, 83% of adults aged 25-64 have completed higher educational activity, more
than the OECD average of 78 %. This can be truer of women than men, as 82 % of men have with
success completed high-school compared with 84% of women. In terms of the standard of the academic
system, the typical student scored 496 in reading mathematics, literature and science within the OECD's
Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA), higher than the OECD average of 486. On the
average in Sweden women outperformed men by 60 %, far more than the typical OECD gap of 2 points
(OECD, 2014).

In Gothenburg, Chalmers University of Technology offered education and research opportunity


in technology, science, shipping and architecture. Besides, University 2300 researcher,
instructor and doctoral students work in public sector research as well as student’s participant
significant research competition and also applied research to resolve social challenges.
Chalmers laboratory focused on automobile related research like- self driving vehicles and
moreover students use different type’s dada logging equipment and communication technology
(

Finally, Research is the orderly and systematic mission for new information. Research
contributes both legitimately and in a roundabout way to critical thinking and learning in
development forms all through society. This worries not least the improvement of new
information with the end goal of meeting worldwide cultural difficulties.
