  1. M.Sc. in “Engineering Policy and Management of Tehnology” Innovation, Engineering and the Management of Technology: building a university agenda Pedro Conceição and Manuel Heitor CENTER FOR INNOVATION, TECHNOLOGY AND POLICY RESEARCH, IN+ Instituto Superior Técnico, Technical University of Lisbon http://in3.dem.ist.utl.pt

  2. Background:trends for the University ?Conceicão & heitor (1999) • Valorization of human and intellectual capital? Codified knowledge (“software”) Tacit knowledge (“wetware”) Challenges and … Opportunities...

  3. TRADITIONAL MECHANISMS TO PROMOTE UNIVERSITIES and R&D IN SOCIETY 1. Intellectual Property Protection issues: economic impact negligible promotes institutional integrity requires adaptation and flexibility 2. Technology Infrastructures and Science Parks issues: emphasis local development have not promoted U-I linkages The model: “american university” as reference

  4. TRADITIONAL MECHANISMS TO PROMOTE THE ROLE OF UNIVERSITIES IN SOCIETY The trend: a process of “institutional convergence” The result: universities today, despite their long historical I inheritance, are relatively new institutions… … with a complex set of incentive structures and organizational features (Rosenberg & Nelson, 1996) The threat: institutional integrity The analysis: “standard”, linear model has been implicit in m most studies

  5. Education / training for last 10 years New technologies Education / training acquired for more than 10 years Existing technologies 2000 2010 2000 2010 The knowledge gap(Scope: EUROPEAN REGIONS) 2010: 80% of technologies with less than 10 years, while 80% of working force has acquired training with more than 10 years

  6. QUESTION Which trends for science, technology and innovation policy, in a way to contribute for the challenges faced by engineering and technology to enhance innovation?

  7. Knowledge InstitutionsLearning Organisations Intellectual PropertyLearning Networks The need for institutional renewal, …promoting diversity with institutional integrity, (Conceicão & Heitor, 1999) …making use of partnerships! (Conceicão, Gibson, Heitor & Sirilli, 2000) Our Argument... • The scope:...the globalized “learning society”! BUT, understanding research (R&D; R&T; R&L), promoting research for creative teaching, and integrating technology, policy and management!

  39. Perspectives for “change” • …Systems of Innovation and Competence Building! • The notion of localised technological change: • a joint process of production, learning and communication • a fully endogenous, with strong interdependence between specialisation and diversification • important, but limited role of demand • based on mix of generic and tacit knowledge • The science base: ” …the aim of policy should be to create a broad and productive science base, closely linked to higher education…”, Pavitt (1998)

  40. THE ISSUE …1 The evidence: • “The major source of economic growth in developed countries has been science-based technology”, Kuznets (1966) • “The explosion in knowledge creation was concentrated in a few regions, and led to similarly concentrated distribution of income”, • World Bank (1999) • The most daunting problem is that of “spiritual inequality”, Fogel (1999)

  44. Internal coherence of the regional innovation system by connecting its different key elements: R&TDI supply with well identified Demand and business needs, from SMEs in particular. Increase the amount and, more importantly the quality of innovation public spending through innovation projects (bigger and better spending in this field through regional policy). Rationalise the regional innovation support system by raising awareness, eliminating duplications, filling gaps and promoting synergies. Regional Innovation StrategiesLandabaso et al. (1999) Successful stories: The Regional Technology Plans Wales (UK), Limburg (Netherlands), Lorraine (France) and Leipzig-Halle-Dessau (Germany), Central Macedonia (Greece), Castilla Y Leon (Spain) and Abruzzo (Italy).

  45. What type of Social Capital ? Source: Conceicão, Gibson, Heitor & Sirilli (2000)

  46. THE ISSUE …2 • “With some notable exceptions, the regional developmment debate in Europe has been dominated by exogeneous models to such an extent that development tends to be conceived as something that is introduced to, or visited upon, less favoured regions, LFRs, from external doors… • …this kind of regional policy did little or nothing to stimulate localised learning, innovation and indigeneous development within LFRs”, • Henderson & Morgan (1999) A specific issue: EUROPEAN DIVERSITY

  47. The regional dimension:technology and innovation gap …cont. Most development programmes stand on their ability to build “social capital”: a relational infrastructure for collective action • This requires a shift in development studies: • fromstate-ledor market-drivenprocesses, regardless time, space or milieu • to institutional perspective, lookingat the quality of institutional networks

  48. The regional dimension:technology and innovation gap …cont. • INSTITUTIONAL NETWORKS to mediate: • mediate information exchange • knowledge creation • capacity for collective action • potential for interactive learning • efficacy of voice mechanisms • Henderson & Morgan (1999)
