Innovation policies for the 21st century : report of a symposium [book]

Editors: Charles W. Wessner, Committee on Comparative Innovation Policy & others.

"How can we better capitalize on national investments in research? More specifically, how can we deliver the fruits of research through products and processes that both enhance welfare and generate wealth? And how do we generate the types of output from our universities and research centers that will help our regional economies grow and meet the challenges of the future? Beyond merely focusing on increasing inputs (such as more funds for basic research) on one hand or setting output targets and mandating results on the other, the innovation ecosystem approach examines the complex processes through which innovations emerge through a variety of collaborative activities to become commercially valuable products." - page 5.
