Regional Innovation Systems
EcTECH – Comparison of Regional Innovation Systems
Client : the Province of British Columbia, Scottish Enterprise and Scottish Office, Government of Lower Saxony, Region Bretagne, Communidad de Valencia
The innovation systems of five regions were compared, at a time when the study of innovation systems was conducted wholly at national level. The study looked in particular at the ability of government to influence innovation systems through specific policies, such as research and development taxation, subsidies, university funding, science parks, incubators and promotional activities. As well as reports aspects of the study have appeared in a number of books and academic papers, including a first publication of a cycle model of the innovation process (Research Policy 1998).
