“Innovation can be defined simply as a "new idea,
device or method".
However, innovation is often also viewed as the
application of better solutions that meet new
requirements, unarticulated needs,
or existing market needs.”

Defining “Innovation”
RE: Regional Innovation Communities
“Hubs” vs. “Clusters” vs. “Ecosystems”
More Innovation Terminology and Context
“The biological ecosystem is a system that includes all
living organisms (biotic factors) in an area as well as its
physical environments (abiotic factors) functioning
together as a unit,
…whose functional goal is to maintain an
equilibrium sustaining state.”
Source: Deborah J. Jackson, National Science Foundation
Defining an “Ecosystem”
“In contrast, an innovation ecosystem models the
economic rather than the energy dynamics of the
complex relationships that are formed between actors
or entities whose functional goal is to enable
technology development and innovation.”

The Ecosystem Effect
The Role of Government
Innovation Ecosystems & Government
• Increase cross-border collaboration
• Build innovation centres (as opposed to research facilities which typically lack commercial focus) that facilitate the innovations of others
• Promote the successes of domestic entrepreneurs to foster an entrepreneurial culture
• Lower barriers to innovation by encouraging ‘balanced risk-taking’ and providing financial incentives to entrepreneurialism (such as matching private investment in start-ups’ research and development and providing tax incentives for funding start-ups)
• Ensure a friendly regulatory environment
• Create places where young people feel they have ‘cultural self-confidence’ and where they can meet face to face, as experts say that is when successful innovations emerge
• Reform education policies to keep pace with the knowledge and skills required for young people to participate in the emerging ‘third-wave industrial revolution’
• Recognise which start-ups are more likely to succeed and channel the resources to them instead of trying to support as many start-ups as possible.
