Popis: Among scholars, policy makers, and practitioners, there is considerable interest in the dynamicsassociated with regions, including their emergence, decline, and regeneration. Such interestis well justified given the role that regions play in contributing to social well-being at a varietyof scales—from individuals to communities and even nation-states. In this article, we examinethe processes that unfolded during the regeneration of a region in Denmark that was knownfor its competence in manufacturing equipment and is now known as a world leader in windturbines. We highlight three mechanisms that led to the regeneration of this region: repurposing,experimentation, and collective learning. Based on these findings, we propose a neo-designapproach to the regeneration of regions Among scholars, policy makers, and practitioners, there is considerable interest in the dynamics associated with regions, including their emergence, decline, and regeneration.
