International Symposium 2012
International Symposium on Science of Science and Innovation Policy
-Toward Synergetic Collaborations and Realization of Innovation-
ABSTRACT
Rising importance of innovation policy and acceleration of
globalization reinforce needs to design, implement, and evaluate
policy alternatives based on scientific approach and evidence.
Currently, initiatives are launched to establish science of science
and innovation policy (SciSIP). Although universities in Japan faces
severe budget constraint, much effort has been done for nurturing
innovation. It is requested for universities and public institutes to
play a crucial role in realizing innovation and also to envision a
path of science to innovation for society.
This international symposium will be held to share the current status
and achievements in SciSIP and to discuss ideas for implementing
outcome of SciSIP in policy making process. The focus is
interdisciplinary field between social science and computer science,
which is emerging and promising to support policy analysis and policy
making.
Based on requests from policy making side given in this
symposium, we will shape and share future direction and perspectives
of SiSIP with learning from lectures by leading scholars in this field
and discussions among participants.
