Organizing innovation: Integrating knowledge systems
The question we attempt to shed light on in this article is: How can we organize national and regional innovation systems in order to increase innovation activity in SMEs globally (small and medium-sized enterprises)? From the individual company's point of view the question pertaining to research would be: How can SMEs utilize new knowledge, new skills and new technology, to increase innovation activity and improve their competitive advantage? The purpose of the article is to develop a simple model for regional innovation centres, designed to overcome the field of institutional inertia in which established institutions to a great extent are trapped. We will also discuss the concept of new scanning institutions.
