Developing science, technology and innovation indicators: what we can learn from the past The science-technology-innovation system is one that is continuously and rapidly evolving. The dramatic growth over the last twenty years in the use of science, technology and innovation (STI) indicators appears first and foremost the result of a combination between on the one hand the easiness of computerized access to an increasing number of measures of STI and on the other hand the interest in a growing number of public policy and private business circles in such indicators as might be expected in societies which increasingly use organized science and technology to achieve a wide variety of social and economic objectives and in which business competition is increasingly based on innovation.

e-Books from the World Bank e-Library
 With
technological capability increasingly becoming the touchstone of
competitiveness in an open and integrated world environment, the role of
universities in economic growth is taking on a greater salience. Not only
do they impart education but also they are coming to be viewed as sources
of industrially valuable technical skills, innovations and
entrepreneurship. Realizing this potential of universities so as to spur
growth is now a priority in developed and developing countries. This calls
for coordinated policy actions. The distinguished contributors to this
volume examine the wealth of international experience on the efforts
underway to multiply linkages between universities and businesses. They
offer valuable and succinct guidance on some of the most effective policy
measures being deployed by national and regional governments, by firms and
by universities themselves to enhance the contribution which tertiary
institutions can make to economic change. Click here
