Summary:

This book is about the language, concepts and practice of creating 'collaborative advantage'. There is an emerging new collaborative economic order where innovation results from an integrated process of collaboration between policymakers, business and society. In many parts of the World, the focus for this collaboration is neither at the national level or that of the individual enterprise, but at a regional level. The contributions in Creating Collaborative Advantage examine new trends in innovation policy that reflect this new collaborative thinking and regional focus.
