5. National innovation system
National Innovation system:
" the network of institutions in the public and private sectors whose
activities and interactions initiate, import, modify and diffuse new
technologies" <Freeman, C. 1995>
"that set of distinct institutions which jointly and individually contribute
to the development and diffusion of new technologies and which
provides the framework within which governments form and implement
policies to influence the innovation process. As such it is a system of
interconnected institutions to create, store and transfer
knowledge, skills and artefacts which define new technologies."
<Metcalfe,J.S, 1995>

6. National innovation system
ORIGIN OF NATIONAL INNOVATION SYSTEM THINKING
Friedrich List 's conception of "the national system of political
economy" (1841)
- The role of intellectual capital accumulation in
national economic development
- The interdependence of tangible and
intangible investment has a decidedly modern
ring. Industry should be linked to the formal
institutions of science and of education
- The independence of the import of foreign
technology and domestic technical
development
www.CeTIM.org Prof. Dr. Bernhard Katzy 14/02/12 5

7. National innovation system
WHAT SET PRUSSIA ON THE ROAD TO OVERTAKING BRITAIN
IN THE LATTER HALF OF 19TH CENTURY
- German developed one of the best technical education and training
systems in the world
- The Prussian government set up TechnicalTraining Institute
(Gewerbeinstitut), made sure that they received imported British
machine tools for reverse engineering and for training German
craftsmen, who then disseminated the technology in German industry
- British craftsmen were also attracted to Prussia, as much of technology
depended on tacit knowledge
- The german machine tool industry and machine-building proved capable
of designing and manufacturing the machinery necessary to make
steam locamotive in the 1840s and1850s

8. National innovation system
THE RISE OF RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
- The main factor in establishing the German chemical industry's leading
position before and after the first World war.
- The major institutional innovation of the in-house industrial R&D
department was firstly introduced in 1870
- As a result, Hoechst, Bayer and BASF have continued and strengthened
this tradition down to the present day.
- After the second world war, the prestige of organized, professional R&D
was very high, it was spread to other countries.
- It was a linear model of science and technology "push".
- The case of Atom bomb project
Basic physics - large-scale development in big labs- applications and
innovations (whether military or civil )
www.CeTIM.org Prof. Dr. Bernhard Katzy 14/02/12 7

9. National innovation system
Increasing in R&D investment occurred in all industrial countries in
the 1950s and 1960s, and even in the Third World Countries

fraction of GNP, 1934-1983

10. National innovation system
MORE FACTORS?
Evidence accumulated that the rate of technical change and of economic
growth depended more on efficient diffusion than on being first in the world
with radical innovation as much on social innovations as on technical
innovations.
Japan USSR
- Integration of R&D, - Separate research institute within the academy
production, and system (for fundamental research), for each industry
technology imports at sector ( for applied research and development) and
firm level for the design of plant and import of technology.
- Strong user-producer - Weak links between these different institutions and
linkages enterprise-level R&D remained rather weak
- “Kairetsu” Model - The user-producer linkages were very weak or
almost non-existent in some areas of the Soviet
Union.

12. National innovation system
SAXENIAN'S IDEAS
- Innovation system dynamism is based on the organization of it's
firms or their relationships to one another or local institutions.
- Organization precedes technology. It is precisely the
openness, multiplicity and diversity of interconnections in Silicon
Valley that allows economic actors to continually scan the
environment for new opportunities and to invest in novel
technologies, markets and applications with unprecedented
speed.
- Regional advantage lies in an institutional environment that
supports continuous innovation and collective learning – one
that by it's very nature undermines technological trajectories or
path dependency.

- a planned phenomenon
- characterized by silicon or chips

- 2.4 million people, 41 percent
foreign born
- 1.2 million workers
- 81 percent high school
diploma
- 40 percent college degree

23. What can we learn from Silicon Valley
KEY SUCCESSFUL FACTORS ARE IDENTIFIED
- High level of research capability
- Abundance of high-qualified manpower
- A pleasant business climate (business environment)
- The retention of enough funds (VCs)
- Diffusion of S&T and innovation culture is important in addition to
having an open business climate (cooperation culture)
- Inducement of multinational companies or research institutes (anchor
company's role)
- Networking and Entrepreneurship

24. Innovation Cluster the case of GALILEO and SatNav
GALILEO
– The first satellite positioning and
navigation system specifically
designed for civil purposes
- Some EUR 3.4 billion to be
invested
- 30 satellites to be launched and
numerous ground equipment to be
installed
www.CeTIM.org Prof. Dr. Bernhard Katzy 14/02/12 23

25. Innovation Cluster the case of GALILEO and SatNav
GALILEO
- A market for equipment and
services worth some EUR 200
billion per annum by 2013
- More than 100 000 new jobs in
transportation, energy, environmen
tal management, recreation ……
are expected
- But how???
www.CeTIM.org Prof. Dr. Bernhard Katzy 14/02/12 24

26. Innovation Cluster the case of GALILEO and SatNav
INNOFIT
The findings we got so far
1) All the clusters show a weakness
in market orientation-Demand
creation
2) Different demand creation
mechanisms were identified
(ESNC, Innovation Voucher,
Galileo Road Show……)
3) There is no “one-size-fit-all”
demand creation mechanism
4) Require stakeholder’s
involvement
