Description:
The authors will introduce Gyor as a significant member and centre both of this region and the Central European automotive industrial concentration. The study gives an overview of the emergence of the special Triple Helix Model in the analysed Hungarian town. Based on the results of the research programme 'Gyor Regional Vehicle Industrial District as a New Direction and Investment of Regional Development' (TÁMOP-4.2.2.A-11/1/KONV-2012-0010) completed in 2014, the authors will present the "Model of Gyor". The paper outlines the most significant theoretical and empirical results of the research which serves further development prospects, paths and examples to other Hungarian towns or to towns with similar industrial background around the world. The model represents the urban network structure as a 'living system' of Gyor that includes the university, the automotive industry and related innovative companies like Audi and the town (local government) as a coordinating factor.
