The document discusses the Co-operative Bank's approach to corporate social responsibility (CSR). It provides an overview of the bank's ethical policies for investments and lending. While praising aspects of the bank's CSR efforts, it also notes some criticisms, such as a lack of transparency and detail in CSR reporting. It concludes that defining and standardizing CSR internationally could help improve legislation and performance for businesses.
Biotechnology: Industry position survey 2012 GT AustraliaGrant Thornton
The biotechnology industry position survey provides an annual snapshot of the industry's views on key issues. The key findings were:
1) Sentiment in the industry remains positive, with 82% of respondents expecting business growth in the coming year and 68% characterizing 2011 as a good year.
2) Most companies plan to increase staffing levels, primarily in sales/marketing and scientific roles.
3) Despite 54% raising capital in 2011, funding remains a challenge with 34% having less than 12 months of cash.
4) The majority see the new R&D tax incentive as positively impacting their business, though over half have not sought advice on it.

Theo Roelandt: In Praise of Heroic Policy Making Theo Roelandt
This document summarizes a speech given by Dr. Theo Roelandt on evidence-based policy making. The speech calls for more rigorous impact assessment of policies using experimental and empirical methods. It outlines the speaker's policy impact assessment strategy, which involves developing clear intervention theories, monitoring key indicators, and evaluating policies using randomized controlled trials, natural experiments, and small-scale policy experiments. Examples provided include an evaluation of innovation credits in the Netherlands using a differences-in-differences approach and a behavioral insights experiment on reducing food waste in restaurants. The speech concludes by discussing some of the complexities in applying experimental methods to policy making.
This document discusses the importance of innovation for economic growth and addressing global challenges. It makes three key points:
1. Innovation, especially through investment in intangible assets like research and development, accounts for most productivity growth and differences in GDP between economies. Both public and private sectors need to continue investing in innovation.
2. Public-private partnerships are increasingly important for health innovation but need clearer rationales and evaluations to understand what works best. Partners can collaborate across research and development with the right institutions and governance.
3. Good governance requires anticipatory and adaptive approaches that engage stakeholders early to manage risks from new technologies and enable responsible innovation. Regulation needs to balance potential benefits and risks at all stages.
This document discusses the importance of innovation for economic growth and addressing global challenges. It makes three key points:
1. Innovation, especially investment in intangible assets like research and development, accounts for most productivity and GDP growth in developed economies and is a major factor in differences in living standards between countries.
2. Both public and private sector investment are needed to drive innovation as knowledge production becomes more collaborative and international. National innovation policies need to encourage partnerships between sectors.
3. Public-private partnerships are increasingly common in health innovation but need clearer rationales and frameworks to ensure high quality research and equitable knowledge sharing while managing risks and transaction costs. Different partnership models can optimize roles for industry and academia.

An analytical impact assessment was conducted on government R&D subsidies for private firms in Korea using different firm-level data sources. Various methods, including propensity score matching and difference-in-differences, found generally positive impacts of subsidies. Subsidies increased total R&D investment by 98% on average over 4 years but decreased firms' own R&D funding by 11% in the benefit year. Sales growth increased 12% over 4 years on average while profit growth was not significantly impacted. Capital investment and employment each increased by around 12% over 4 years. Subsidies also positively impacted firm survival rates.
Science, Innovation and the Economy: UK Challenges and OpportunitiesTera Allas

Science & Innovation 2014: Foresighting Trajectories for Advanced Innnovative...Innogen
The UK currently faces an unprecedented array of innovation opportunities. Many important initiatives are being designed to support the translation of basic science into practical outcomes, as well as to ensure we capitalise on the economic and societal benefit from the research we fund. To maximise this impact, there is a need for a radically new approach to innovation support from the social science and policy communities – one that helps us better understand the factors that determine which products and processes reach the marketplace, over what timescales, and in which industry sectors, regions or countries. Innogen works to effectively foresight future outcomes of specific policies, regulatory initiatives, innovation support mechanisms and investment decisions, and identify gaps in regulatory capacity to be responsive to the rapid pace of innovation in advanced technology sectors. This seminar will explore our approach to the analysis of innovation generation, focusing particularly on where our ideas are having most traction in innovation and policy communities.
Introductory presentation to Saint Lucia stakeholders for consultation on developing innovation strategy and action plan for National Trade Strategy on behalf of International Trade Centre (ITC)
This paper reports results from an experiment studying how fines, leniency programs and reward schemes for whistleblowers affect cartel formation and prices. Antitrust without leniency reduces cartel formation, but increases cartel prices: subjects use costly fines as (altruistic) punishments. Leniency further increases deterrence, but stabilizes surviving cartels: subjects appear to anticipate harsher times after defections as leniency reduces recidivism and lowers post-conviction prices. With rewards, cartels are reported systematically and prices finally fall. If a ringleader is excluded from leniency, deterrence is unaffected but prices grow. Differences between treatments in Stockholm and Rome suggest culture may affect optimal law enforcement.

1. The document discusses public research organizations (PRO) and their interactions with industry in developing countries like Argentina. It analyzes the benefits and risks of these interactions through case studies and a survey of firms.
2. The case study of a biotechnology interaction found benefits like new discoveries but also risks around privatizing public knowledge.
3. The survey found that firms engaged in more active, bidirectional interactions invested more in innovation and were more likely to patent and formally collaborate. This suggests active partnerships maximize benefits over risks.

Innovation in Small Businesses: Drivers of Change and Value Use Abhishek Sood
This document summarizes a report on innovation in small businesses. It finds that increases in employee headcount are positively correlated with increases in innovation, as measured by patent production. However, increases in sales are not correlated with increases in innovation. Additionally, the number of patents owned by a small business is not indicative of its market value. The report also finds that increases in research and development expenditures can increase market value for small businesses, but that the effect depends on the industry.

The document discusses innovation policy to improve societal well-being through technology, processes, and social innovation. It notes that innovation can boost health, sustainability, and competitiveness but requires investment. Regional policies aim to foster innovation by dealing with aging populations, giving regional authorities flexibility, and requiring more sophisticated approaches. The document outlines Puglia's regional strategy for research and innovation including support for cooperation networks, SME aggregation, talent attraction, and research infrastructure agencies. It discusses analyzing barriers like insufficient interactions between demand and supply, and lack of financing continuity. Living labs and public-private partnerships are presented as ways to promote user-driven open innovation.

This Paper analyses data from a number of CARICOM countries.
1. The document discusses the challenges of innovation in public services, including conceptual, research, and policy challenges.
2. It notes that public services face funding crises, new challenges, and calls for modernization, while also facing obstacles to innovation like risk aversion and resistance to change.
3. Research on innovation in public services is underdeveloped and faces challenges in defining units of analysis and dealing with large, complex systems. There is a need for more systematic study of innovation processes and impacts in public services.
Innovation is the application of new solutions to meet new requirements or needs. It differs from invention in that innovation refers to using ideas or methods, while invention refers to creating them. Innovation can occur in individuals, societies, businesses, and organizations through sources like changes in markets, demographics, or scientific knowledge. Common goals of innovation programs are improved quality, new markets, and reduced costs, though failures can occur from issues like poor goal definition, participation, or monitoring of results. Innovation is measured globally using indexes that rank countries based on factors like research and development spending and patent activity.

- The study finds that cities that adopted procurement policies favoring LEED-certified buildings saw a 7-13% increase in private sector LEED building registrations and 28% more LEED accredited professionals (APs) compared to similar cities without such policies.
- The policies are found to stimulate private green building by establishing the government as an early adopter of the LEED standard, helping to overcome inertia among private developers and complementarities between buildings and LEED APs.

Two surveys were conducted of Finnish firms and public procurers to assess the link between public procurement and firm innovation. The surveys found that a significant portion of supplier firms developed innovations in response to public sector contracts. However, public procurers reported that supply markets were often concentrated, limiting their ability to influence markets. The document outlines several policy implications to better support public procurement of innovation, such as facilitating identification of societal challenges, setting up market dialogue processes, and encouraging joint specification between procurers.

The document summarizes findings from a study examining the impact of public procurement on private sector innovation using US federal procurement data from 1999-2009. The main findings are:
1) Private sector R&D employment responds positively to increases in the technological content of public procurement contracts, as measured by the share of procurement spending in high-tech industries.
2) This suggests that shifts in the composition of government procurement toward more innovative, high-tech goods and services can stimulate private sector innovation.
3) Policymakers should consider how changes in the industry focus of public procurement may influence private sector R&D, in addition to traditional support programs like grants and tax credits. Public procurement can act as an effective, if

This report explores the significance of border towns and spaces for strengthening responses to young people on the move. In particular it explores the linkages of young people to local service centres with the aim of further developing service, protection, and support strategies for migrant children in border areas across the region. The report is based on a small-scale fieldwork study in the border towns of Chipata and Katete in Zambia conducted in July 2023. Border towns and spaces provide a rich source of information about issues related to the informal or irregular movement of young people across borders, including smuggling and trafficking. They can help build a picture of the nature and scope of the type of movement young migrants undertake and also the forms of protection available to them. Border towns and spaces also provide a lens through which we can better understand the vulnerabilities of young people on the move and, critically, the strategies they use to navigate challenges and access support.
The findings in this report highlight some of the key factors shaping the experiences and vulnerabilities of young people on the move – particularly their proximity to border spaces and how this affects the risks that they face. The report describes strategies that young people on the move employ to remain below the radar of visibility to state and non-state actors due to fear of arrest, detention, and deportation while also trying to keep themselves safe and access support in border towns. These strategies of (in)visibility provide a way to protect themselves yet at the same time also heighten some of the risks young people face as their vulnerabilities are not always recognised by those who could offer support.
In this report we show that the realities and challenges of life and migration in this region and in Zambia need to be better understood for support to be strengthened and tuned to meet the specific needs of young people on the move. This includes understanding the role of state and non-state stakeholders, the impact of laws and policies and, critically, the experiences of the young people themselves. We provide recommendations for immediate action, recommendations for programming to support young people on the move in the two towns that would reduce risk for young people in this area, and recommendations for longer term policy advocacy.
RFP for Reno's Community Assistance CenterThis Is Reno
Property appraisals completed in May for downtown Reno’s Community Assistance and Triage Centers (CAC) reveal that repairing the buildings to bring them back into service would cost an estimated $10.1 million—nearly four times the amount previously reported by city staff.

3. Introduction
Aims
In this work we aim at analyzing the simultaneous effect of technology
policies (public R&D subsidies, tax credits, and innovative public
procurement) on firms’ innovative behavior.
Results
Strong result: without controlling for simultaneity of other policies,
the impact of a single policy is overestimated.
Weak result: the impact of a mix of policies is stronger than the
sum of the effects of the policy in isolation.

4. The impact of public R&D subsidies
Do public subsidies displace private efforts in R&D, simply add to them
or favor their increase?
Long deabated question in the literature with no conclusive answer
Some evidence of a crowding out effect (Shrieves, 1978; Carmichael,
1981; Higgins, 1981)
Some evidence of a reinforcing effect (Holemans, 1988; Link, 1982;
Antonelli, 1989 ).
Reviews of the econometric evidence
Garcia-Quevedo(2004) does a review of 74 results: Complementarity
vs. substitutability: 38-17 (19 insignificant).
David et al. (2000) discuss methodological issues: different source of
endogeneity.

5. The impact of public R&D subsidies II
Selection bias
Selection bias may have a dual cause:
Public institutions may cherry-pick winners on the basis of some
peculiar characteristics (e.g. more innovative firms)
Firms may possess information/search capability advantage (e.g.
larger firms may have devoted staff)
Literature addressing the selection bias issue:
Almus and Czarnitzki (2003) design a quasi-experimental setting,
applying propensity score matching to reduce selection bias
Rejects the crowding out hypothesis and provides some evidence of
a positive impact of R&D policies on private investments.
Thereafter numerous works applied the same methodology.

6. The impact of public R&D subsidies III
Possible drawback in this literature:”hidden treatment” as a confounding
factor
Well known problem in clinical research:
Various compounds are administered to a patient at the same time,
as a cure fore the same disease.
Is it then possible to evaluate the effect of a specific treatment
without considering the others?
In our case a hidden treatment can arise from the presence, in a
system of innovation, of other technology policies designed to
stimulate private R&D.
Suitable suspects ! R&D tax credits and Innovative public
procurement (IPP)

Summing up:
Literature investigating the impact of R&D subsidies on private
investments in R&D, controlling for selection bias, finds a
reinforcement effect (Almus and Czarnitzki, 2003).
Theoretical and limited empirical literature on IPP suggest a robust
and positive impact of IPP on private investments in R&D.

10. Data and method
Data
Cross-sectional dataset from Innobarometer on Strategic trends in
innovation 2006-2008 survey, conducted in the 27 Member States of
the EU, Norway and Switzerland.
The project surveyed 5238 companies with more than 20 employees
in a large selection of sectors.
Senior company managers responsible for strategic decisions making
of 5238 company were interviewed
Firms have been asked about any public procurement contracts they
have been awarded and whether this procurement was innovative or
not.
Marco Guerzoni and Emilio Raiteri Innovative public procurement and R&D Subsidies
11. Empirical strategy
Quasi-experimental framework:
R&D public subsidies, tax credits, and IPP as treatment variables.
Increase in private R&D expenditures as the measured outcome.
Propensity score matching to mitigate the endogeneity problem.
The average treatment effect will be recovered by taking the
difference in averages between treatment and control group.
Data problems.
Marco Guerzoni and Emilio Raiteri Innovative public procurement and R&D Subsidies
12. Empirical strategy
Procedural confounding
To tackle this issue we design 10 different treatments:subsidies, tax
credits, IPP, subsidies only, credits only, IPP only, 3 treatments for
any combination of two of them, all of them.
First 3 treatments do not take into account potential policies
simultaneity ! procedural confounding. Each has different control
group.
The other 7 treatments take into account possible interactions !
eliminate (reduce) potential confounding. One control group.
Research questions
Are estimations retrieved for the first three treatments going in the
same direction along the evidence provided so far?
If yes, is there a significant difference in the estimates recovered
when reducing the procedural confounding?

19. Main findings
Main findings:
Results retrieved from the treatments vulnerable to confounding
effect are coherent with the evidence provided in the literature.
When we consider policy tool in isolation, the positive impact of
R&D subsidies on R&D investments reduces and ceases to be
significant ! IPP proves to be a crucial confounding factor and to
have robust impact on innovative inputs.
If consider in isolation, IPP is still significant.
The convexity of the policy tools ? ! evidence points in that
direction but possible selection bias
Marco Guerzoni and Emilio Raiteri Innovative public procurement and R&D Subsidies
20. Conclusions
Policy perspective:
Past results have been overestimated.
Our results recommend to carefully consider the interaction among
different tools in composing technology policy mixes.
Data collection for evaluation should consider this issue.
IPP may represent an effective way to foster firms’ innovative
activities and to reinforce positive effects of R&D subsidies,
stimulating additional expenses in R&D.
Push and Pull strategies should be considered at the same time.

23. Empirical strategy II
Selection bias
To reduce the selection bias we follow Almus and Czarnitzki (2003)
who brought in innovation policy studies non-parametric matching.
We apply propensity score matching (Rosenbaum and Rubin, 1983)
to find a group of non-treated individuals that are similar to the
treated ones in all relevant pre-treatment characteristics.
Once the matching is implemented treated and control units should
be on average observationally identical. An unbiased estimation of
the average treatment effect should be retrieved by:
PsmATT = Ep(x)|T{E[YT|T, Pr(X)] − E[YC|C, Pr(X)]} (1)
Marco Guerzoni and Emilio Raiteri Innovative public procurement and R&D Subsidies
24. Propensity score specification
Estimation of the propensity scores
To recover the propensity score for every treatment we run different
probit and multinomial logistic regressions of the treatment
variables on a set of relevant covariates.
Following Caliendo and Kopeinig (2008) the following variables are
included: Size of the firm, young firm dummy, in house R&D
department dummy, location of the firm’s core market, country of
origin of the firm, sector dummies.
Once the propensity scores are recovered, we use these measures to
proceed to matching and then to PSM estimations.
The most straightforward way to asses the quality of the matching
is through a graphic analysis of PS density distributions before and
after the matching
