This document provides an overview of Malaysia's national innovation system and science, technology, and innovation policies and programs. It summarizes Malaysia's strong support system for entrepreneurship, technology commercialization, and research collaboration.

This document presents the results of the IFISE project which validated two Israeli innovation programs - the Yozma program and the Technological Incubators Program. The Yozma program, which created Israel's venture capital industry in the 1990s, was found to be an outstanding success based on economic impact indicators. The Incubators Program also saw some success in supporting entrepreneurs, but indicators were less consistent and improvements were identified. Key lessons included the need for public seed capital but time-limited startup capital, focusing VC in mature high-tech regions, keeping the state passive in investments, and coordinating innovation policy. An analysis of Italy found it lacks seed capital especially in high-potential regions and has few biotech startups

The research project examined perspectives from employers, secondary school students, and higher education students on employment decisions and the national qualifications framework in the UAE (QFEmirates). Key findings include:
1) Employers varied in their understanding of job qualification requirements in the QFEmirates but generally understood requirements for jobs requiring diplomas or higher. They placed high importance on graduates having qualifications, work experience, and core life skills when hiring.
2) Most secondary students intended to attend university immediately after finishing school, while few opted for vocational education. Many had unrealistic high salary expectations for entry-level jobs.
3) Higher education students chose their field of study based more on personal interest than career prospects.
