"Not an academic study, but I'm doing several network mapping projects
with econ devel firms in Ohio. Here is a white paper on the first
project[how an econ devel firm helped local organizations connect for
economic benefit] and an older network map of NE Ohio econ devel firms
and their collaborations and support [The undirected links are
partnerships/collaborations, and the directed links are money/ resource
flows]."
