From innovation policy research to local policy implementation: Strategic policy intelligence guiding concrete innovation support measures
Joinly organized by the Six Countries Programme and Ireland's National Policy and Advisory Board for Enterprise, Trade, Science, Technology and Innovation (Forfás), this workshop addressed the issue of how strategic policy intelligence might guide concrete innovation support measures. The key questions posed were: in what way and to what extent can ongoing innovation policy instruments absorb and implement policy intelligence? The workshop brought together policy research experts and key persons responsible for policy implementation with a view to linking strategic policy intelligence theory with practical research opportunities.
