The agents are localized on a circle and the costs of direct communication increase with distance. After having studied pairwise stability and efficiency, we introduce a stochastic process of network formation with preferential meeting. We show how the structure of stochastically stable networks is affected by the degree of knowledge transferability. We find that, for a large region of this parameter value, the process selects small world-like networks which exhibit high local density and distant connections.
