Assesing design support programmes from an inovation models perspective in Turkey
The innovative character of the industrialized countries contributes to their economic performance. The dynamics of innovation are not dependent only on scientific and technological developments but also include design, which acts as a bridge between technology, services, user-centred, and social innovation. Design is not only implemented by in-house activities in countries with powerful design sectors; design- and innovation-related external actors are also actively used. Influenced by the new inovation models, innovation-related external actors contribute to a country's competitiveness by engaging in local and global collaborative networks they form among themselves, and with manufacturing industries. Awareness about the role and contribution of innovation and design in attaining competitiveness has been raised in Turkey, and relevant political, legal, and administrative regulations have been implemented in the 2000s. The theoretical framework on which policies and supports are based relies on linear innovation models, and new generation innovation models are not actively used. Yet, the ratio of manufacturing industry firms that have the capacity to make limited products and technological developments in Turkey is high. In addition to that, the use of collaborative (local and global) networks between manufacturing firms of different sizes and innovative outsourcing suppliers is low. This study aims to build a conceptual framework for the active use of design in product innovation by analyzing the relevant public policies. To this end, the focus will be on current policy and strategy documents, and the design-support programs provided by the public.
