The study looked at how human capital and technology intensity affect economic growth in the Veneto region. By analyzing data on workers and firms, the researchers found that growth in the region is boosted by human capital in medium and medium/low technology sectors, rather than high-tech industries. This suggests that a mix of different types of human capital is important for regional development.
