Since 1996, migration‐related schemes have directed new immigrants, refugees and humanitarian entrants to regional Australia to mitigate the need for skills and declining population growth in these locations. However, a key concern of these schemes is the uncertainty of long‐term immigrant retention in regional locations beyond the stipulated visa category period. We draw on the metaphor of stickiness: the ability of geographic clusters to attract and retain to examine Australian regional settlement literature and identify factors and processes associated with immigrant settlement and retention. Through a systematic and rigorous review process, we identify seven interconnected factors and processes nestled amongst three core themes of sticky factors and processes that attract, enable and impede settlement and retention contributing to the growing knowledge regarding regional immigrant settlement and retention.

“…The NONOCE variable was chosen as it increased the models' statistical significance more than an initially constructed regional ethnic diversity index variable, perhaps due to the low numbers of non-Australians in regional towns. The model assumed that migrants were highest in regions with a history of migrant attraction due to the availability of work, cultural support as well as migrant welcoming community (Jordan et al 2010;Lyas et al 2013). The normalized variable (placed on 0 to 100 scale) of Australia's remoteness and accessibility index (X 18 or ARIA) was included to test whether more regions with better road connectivity and access were also more innovative.…”

Labor Networks Connecting Peripheral Economies to the National Innovation System

Understanding the characteristics of innovation in peripheral regions is critical to enhancing economic competitiveness and productivity in remote or rural communities worldwide. Metropolitan innovation success stories have limited application or policy relevance in peripheral areas due to a lack of critical mass in industry and population. This has seen an emergent body of literature consider the different dynamics of innovation in these areas. This article contributes both methodologically and conceptually to current academic discourse and debates by exploring innovation across the sparsely-populated large spatial divides of regional Australia through the novel use of social network analysis and econometric modelling. It employs commuting data and a regression of 2000-2013 OECD patent data against select socioeconomic variables and commuting indices. It finds that innovative activity is positively linked to population, commuting, and professional employment for smaller communities. This points to the movement of labor as an important factor, playing a role as an interregional conduit of tacit knowledge by extending the social capital networks of smaller peripheral communities.
