Innovation Policies

In recent years, mission-oriented approaches have received growing interest in science, technology and innovation (STI) policies against the background of two developments. First, while so-called “horizontal” or “generic” approaches to research, technology and innovation policies have largely been successful in improving the general innovation performance or the rate of innovation, there are perceived limitations in terms of insufficiently addressing the direction of technological change and innovation. Second, “grand societal challenges” emerged on policy agendas, such as climate change, security, food and energy supply or ageing populations, which call for thematic orientation and the targeting of research and innovation efforts. In addition, the apparent success of some mission-oriented initiatives in countries like China, South Korea, and the United States in boosting technological development for purposes of strengthening competitiveness contributed to boosting the interest in targeted and directional government interventions in STI. Against the backdrop of this renewed interest in mission-oriented STI policy, the OECD has addressed the growing importance of this topic and launched a project looking into current experiences with Mission-Oriented Innovation Policy (MOIP). The present study on MOIP in Austria was commissioned by the Austrian Federal Ministry for Climate Action, Energy, Mobility, Environment, Innovation and Technologiy (BMK) and comprises the Austrian contributions to this OECD project. The study aims at contributing Austrian experiences to the international debate and to stimulate a national debate on MOIP.

Science Technology And Innovation

Canada, as a country with a small, open economy, faces the immediate challenge of learning to shape dynamic comparative advantage in the emerging international economy. About 75 % of Canada's trade linkages are with the United States, and a very large component of the Canadian experience of « globalization » is driven by North American economic integration. This integration is taking place in the absence of institutions and policy mechanisms to promote and manage science, technology, and innovation relations on a continental scale. Bilateral s & T arrangements centered on the United States presently characterize the North American innovation System. Circumstances in North America pose three sets of challenges to Canadian s & T policy. 1) Science and technology are increasing in importance in international trade, environmental, and social/cultural matters. This means that Canada must learn to improve its management of an increasingly internationalized domestic s & T System. 2) Canada must cultivate mutually beneficial bilateral s & T relationships with its two partners in NAFTA, Mexico and the United States. 3) Canada must identify where its interests lie in the development and governance of trilateral and international rules and arrangements for science, technology, and innovation.

The article shows that for the development of science, technology, and education, it is necessary to create an adequate information and analytical system to support the adoption of effective management decisions. One of the main difficulties of this task is that it should be solved comprehensively, and not in fragments, as it is done at present. After all, in the structure of the Russian Government there is no body for centralized management of the solution of this issue. Therefore, many state programs in this area are not coordinated with each other and are not supported by the necessary personnel, standards, and legal and information provision. All this will have to be created anew in the context of increasing attempts to isolate Russia economically and politically by the United States and its supporters in the countries of the European Union (EU). The author suggests using this geopolitical situation to review the strategy and tactics of Russia's scientific and technological development, making it a priority to increase the efficiency of using its own intellectual potential and expand scientific and technological cooperation with other countries. First of all, it should be the BRICS countries, the Eurasian Economic Union, as well as China, India, Iran and South Korea, which also face acute problems of scientific and technological development.

Among the economies in the Eastern coastal area of mainland China, Jiangsu has stood out in terms of its rapid and sustained economic growth since 2000. The province has done exceptionally well in terms of competitiveness indicators, catching up quickly with the leading Greater China economy of Taiwan. Such convergence has triggered much academic and policy interest in terms of understanding the driving factors that have enabled Jiangsu to catch up with Taiwan. In this context, this paper empirically analyzes the factors that have caused the convergence between the two economies from 2000 to 2011 by employing Geweke Causality analysis. By decomposing and examining the linear feedback between economic growth and vectors of variables capturing investments in infrastructure, human capital, science, technology and innovation activities, this paper confirms the important role played by those factors in the convergence between Jiangsu and Taiwan in recent years.

Abstract: This work aims to analyze the objectives and interactions of innovation financing tools from a point of view of a technology, research and innovation foundation. It brings as subject the case of the Technology, Research and Innovation Foundation of the State of Rio de Janeiro (FAPERJ), and its incorporation of a Technology Board. Working side by side with a Scientific Board, it faces the challenge of interact, finance, and boost innovation, whereas the Foundation carries more than 40 years of basic research funding (1980 until 2019) the financing of innovation activities was incorporated in 2002. With the R&D activities in Brazil centered on public University, Research Institutes and only a small presence in companies (only 5% of the innovative companies perform R&D), FAPERJ’s faces the challenge of create financing tools that improves the interaction between these actors. The sample analyzed in this study relates the eligibility criteria used in the FAPERJ’s Technological Development Support (ADT) with similar and inspiring program, the United States of America Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR). As result, we have found the lack of incentives for interaction between universities and business sector, showing that only a small part of the projects financed by FAPERJ can reach the commercialization.

It seems possible to consider the features of the “eastern” approach to the procedure for fi nancing scientific and technical research using the example of the current regulation of state support for these areas in China. A set of measures to fi nance science, technology and innovation in China, among other things, has now led to what is commonly called the “Asian miracle”, including due to reasonable measures for balanced support of research teams, research institutes and the establishment of a clear administration system.

High Level

The subject of the researchis factors accelerating the technological development of the country.The relevance of the subject is due to the low level of innovation activities in the Russian economy and high dependence on technology imports in a number of the most important manufacturing and mining industries while a number of government programs to promote innovation do not yield the expected results. The implementation of the goals for accelerating the economic development and Russia’s entry into the top five largest world economies based on the technological breakthrough set forth in the May presidential decrees requires taking into account the real technological trends in the largest economies.The purpose of the researchwas to show that the modern technological development requires building a research base for business, especially for large companies, which is in line with provisions of the economic theory developed by a number of economists from J. Schumpeter to P. Romer who substantiated the special role of business research and development under the support of the state. It is empirically proven that it is the high level of R&D expenditures that distinguishes developed countries from those less developed. The paper analyzes the scope and sectoral structure of the R&D carried out by large leading-edge corporations. The statistical data related to technological leaders and other high-tech companies was used in the research. The data was supplemented by patent statistics. The specific features of the growing technological competition between the United States and China were considered.
