Descripción:	This study investigates the distribution and diversity of activities related to bioeconomy in the Brazilian Amazon, leveraging concepts from spatial analysis such as rural-urban integration, agglomeration economies, and local-global knowledge. Methodologically, formal job data at the municipal level is analyzed, employing the Standardized Location Quotient (SLQ) alongside additional analyses. The findings reveal a network centered around Manaus-AM and other state capitals, where bio-industries (agroindustry and biotechnologies) are concentrated over time. These agglomerations are surrounded by regional economies specializing in groups of bioeconomy, such as farming, nature, or livestock production. However, the “spatial bioeconomy” in the Amazon highlights a limitation in the utilization of landscapes for multiple activities, signaling a challenge in enhancing biodiversity in the long term. Despite this, institutions within the Brazilian Amazon possess the capacity to implement projects of bioeconomy with positive impacts on local communities. In conclusion, this approach emerges as a crucial conduit for expanding spatial interactions while simultaneously addressing environmental and social concerns within regions abundant in bioresources.
