Description
The prolonged recession in the world economy has led to a growing interest in the role that design and innovation can play in helping to stimulate economic revival. It is clear that policy approaches which succeed in one country may stand little chance of success in other politically and socially different cultures. Despite these differences, it is an indispensible task of government to stimulate increased national rates of market-oriented technological change.
This book surveys the state of the art in the field of design and innovation policy, and the way in which strategies are implemented and managed at public and corporate level.
