The paper explores changes in firm behaviour in old industrial areas in the West and draws parallels to declining regions in Central and Eastern Europe. It argues that the support for firm foundation and for small and medium-sized enterprises has to consider their embeddedness in a regional context. Strategic policy orientations are presented and lessons for transformation processes drawn.
