The current characteristics in the global economy have defined “knowledge‐intensive services” (KIS) as part of the so‐called “industries of the future” due to the attributes of their employment and central function in the development processes in science, technology, art, and culture. This study outlines as a central hypothesis that the localization of KIS depends on different factors according to the type of knowledge being developed (analytical, synthetic, and symbolic). The main objective in this work is to explore the spatial economic factors associated with the localization and changes (positive and negative) when using KIS in the “national urban system” in Mexico between 2004 and 2014. To do so, the services sector is defined according to the “intensity” and the “types” of knowledge that they develop. An analysis of spatial econometrics is carried out that distinguishes between the geographic (local) effect and the spatial (non‐local) effect of the independent variables using data and microdata from the period 2004 to 2014. The results partly correspond with the central hypothesis of the study and offer possibilities of public policies to take advantage of and to promote the benefits of KIS, especially regarding cities in developing countries looking to become part of the 21st century economy.

墨西哥未来产业：“知识密集型服务”本地化的本地和非本地影响

全球经济的当前特征将“知识密集型服务”（KIS）定义为所谓的“未来产业”的一部分，因为它们的就业属性和在科学、技术、艺术, 文化. 本研究概述了一个核心假设，即 KIS 的本地化取决于正在开发的知识类型（分析性、综合性和象征性）的不同因素。这项工作的主要目标是探索在 2004 年至 2014 年期间在墨西哥“国家城市系统”中使用 KIS 时与本地化和变化（正面和负面）相关的空间经济因素。为此，定义了服务部门根据他们发展的知识的“强度”和“类型”。
