Technology supply has been the main thrust of the Korean government's science & technology policy, focusing on the development and acquisition of new technology in line with the catching-up strategy of economic growth and industrial development. However, new social or societal problems have become major government policy issues, heralding new innovation policy aimed to address them. Such new policy initiatives for social problem-solving present a niche where the existing system of government innovation policy process is challenged, including such processes as goal-setting, planning, implementation, project management, and evaluation. The rigidity of the existing institution of government innovation policy, however, still shapes the content and progression of innovation policy for social problem-solving. This study reviews Korean innovation policy for social problem-solving as a policy niche, and aims to clarify its challenges and opportunities. It uses a system transition framework to explain the emergence and evolution of the innovation policy niche in Korea. The main research question is to what extent and in what aspect the existing innovation policy regime shaped innovation policy for social problem-solving. The study examines the inertia of the current paradigm of innovation policies and R&D programs, and sheds light on the search for a distinctive identity for innovation policies that tackles social problems.

In industrialised countries, innovation is a key source of economic growth. Research is a key driver of technological innovation and involves the process of systematic investigation and/or experimentation to discover new knowledge. The Governments' industry innovation policy supports a business focus on Research and Development (R&D) through a range of programs in order to achieve these aims. The Innovation Statement (DISR 2000, 20010, launched by the Australian Prime Minister in January 2001, commits an additional $3 billion overfive years to encourage and support innovation. The Australian Government aims to build world competitive firms and strong research capability in industry to strengthen Australia's international competitiveness and increase national prosperity. It develops policies and programs to enhance investment in innovation. The Australian Government has established a number of R&D funding support programs aimed at increasing the level of R&D in Australia. The backbone of these programs is the tax concession program, which is made up of the 125 per cent R&D tax concession, the 175 per cent premium tax concession and the tax offset. Over 4000 businesses take advantage of the tax concession scheme, which costs the government around $400-million a year. This cost is expected to rise to over half a billion by 2005-06 (Commonwealth of Australia, 2003). Ensuring these resources are invested where they provide significant national economic benefits is a major policy issue. In this sense, this paper looks at the appropriateness, effectiveness and efficiency of the R&D tax concession with costs and benefits analysis.

Universities are considered important actors and drivers of socio-economic development in the regional innovation eco-system. This article investigates the role Kenyan universities and research institutes play in the development of regional innovation eco-system in the context of triple and Quadruple helices. A model involving Government, Industry, Universities and Society (Public) linkages in the regional innovation eco-system and with Information and Communication Technology as an enabler is used as a framework for analysing the nature of linkages in Kenya. The article uses literature review and case study methods to examine how universities and research institutes can spur the development of the innovation eco-systems. The research question is: what is the role of Kenyan universities and research institutes in spurring innovation ecosystems? Six cases of Kenyan universities and research institutes are considered in the light of Government Policy on Science, Technology and Innovation (STI) which is underpinned in Kenyan constitution 2010. The study contributes to the understanding of how deep collaboration among universities, government, research institutes, Science Cities, local, regional, national and international players spurs the creation of world-class innovation ecosystems which can contribute to regional development in developing countries like Kenya.

This paper discusses government-backed venture capital as a science, technology and innovation (STI) policy instrument from the Chinese perspective. China aspires to overhaul its growth model by vigorously promoting technological innovation and entrepreneurship. Like many other countries, however, funding gaps constrain new technology ventures in the early stages of venture development. To plug this gap, China attempts to use government-backed venture capital as a policy instrument. Super-size central government-backed VCs were set up and dozens of similar schemes are in operation at local levels. This paper provides a case study of such government-backed venture capital schemes in China. It documents the background conditions explaining the country's need for public venture capital, describes the distinct features of program design in such schemes, and assesses the impact of government-backed venture capital.

기업의 R&D 노력과 혁신에 관한 선행연구들은 주로 R&D 노력이 혁신에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지에 관한 분석에 집중하였는데, 이들 연구의 핵심결과는 일관적인 실증분석의 결과를 가져다주지 못하였다. 또한 기업의 혁신을 강화하기 위한 정부의 정책지원은 기업혁신을 창출시키기 위한 중요한 요소로써 간주되어 왔음에도 불구하고 정부정책지원이 기업의 R&D 노력이 혁신으로 이어지는데 있어서의 역할을 규명한 연구는 극히 드문 실정이다. 실제로 대부분의 정부정책지원에 관한 연구 역시 혁신에 직접적인 효과성이 있는지에 관한 연구에 편중되어 왔다. 본 연구는 과학기술정책연구원(STEPI)에서 조사한 2008년 제조업 기업의 기술혁신활동조사표(2008년도)를 이용하여 R&D가 기업의 혁신에 미치는 영향 및 그러한 관계에서 정부정책지원의 조절효과를 규명하려고 시도하였다. 실증분석의 결과는 R&D는 혁신에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며, R&D와 혁신간 관계에서 정부정책지원의 조절효과를 분석한 결과 역시 긍정적으로 나타났다. 이는 기업의 정부정책지원을 많이 받을수록 R&D와 혁신 간의 긍정적 관계가 더 높아진다는 것을 의미하는 것으로 정부정책지원의 긍정적 조절효과가 존재하고 있음을 보여준다. 따라서 기업에 필요한 혁신은 기업의 R&D 노력으로 달성될 수 있는데 R&D 노력이 보다 효율적으로 혁신과 연계되기 위해서는 정부정책지원이 필요가 있음을 시사하고 있다.
