Nordic marine innovation - Øyvind Fylling-Jensen

The document discusses open innovation and its applicability in the Nordic marine sector. It summarizes that open innovation is an important tool for the fragmented seafood industry as it allows for risk reduction, reduced costs, increased speed and success of innovation. However, most innovation in the sector focuses on product development, while greater value is found in innovations to processes, finance and distribution. The presentation argues that moving towards more open innovation practices that combine ideas from inside and outside companies could help create successful innovations and increased value across the seafood industry.

Joint Policy Advice

The document discusses proposed changes to EU Structural Fund regulations for 2014-2020. It summarizes feedback from the Nordic-European Public Investor Initiative, representing 11 national public investors, on increasing support for financial instruments to boost European competitiveness.

Conference_20130305_Jari Romanainen

This document discusses challenge driven innovation and its implications for policy approaches. It proposes a 3-step conceptual approach to challenge driven innovation: 1) feasibility assessment, 2) experimentation, and 3) roll-out. While innovation policies still focus on science and market-driven approaches, demand-driven and challenge-driven innovation is emerging. Real systemic challenge-driven innovation policies are still lacking. The document examines experiences with challenge-driven innovation in healthcare, education, and entrepreneurship ecosystems. It concludes that challenge-driven innovation has potential for growth and societal issues but remains untapped due to institutional barriers.

This document summarizes a presentation on public venture capital investment. It discusses how venture capital can help overcome financing frictions for startups but that returns have been disappointing. There is evidence that VC backing creates value for companies but the market has struggled since the dot-com bubble. The presentation argues for indirect government interventions like subsidies to encourage early-stage private investment and for direct government VC funds if they focus investment and maintain discipline without expecting market returns, as the goal is to promote startup activity, not make a profit.

This document discusses how procurement functions need to rethink their role to better contribute to innovation within companies. As companies increasingly outsource activities and innovation becomes more open, procurement must leverage suppliers' innovation capabilities. However, procurement traditionally focuses only on cost/risk reduction after specifications are set. To better support innovation, procurement needs to get involved earlier in the process and think beyond traditional metrics like cost reduction. Strong supplier partnerships are also not enough - procurement must tap a wider range of partners to access new innovations.

Procurement Methods and their Application.

Lilian Nwachukwu

This document provides an overview and analysis of various procurement methods for construction projects, including traditional, design-build, management contracting, and public-private partnerships. It defines procurement as acquiring something through effort and discusses the client's main concerns of finishing on time, within budget, and achieving quality. The traditional method involves separate design and construction phases. Design-build combines design and construction responsibilities. Management contracting and construction management involve subcontractors managed by a consultant or manager. Public-private partnerships allow collaboration between public and private sectors. The conclusion emphasizes the importance of professional advice to help clients choose the most appropriate option based on their specific project needs and concerns.

120-Moncada-EU corporate R&D Intensity gap

This document analyzes corporate R&D investment and intensity in the EU and other major economies from 2005-2013. It finds that while the EU saw stable R&D investment growth, there are no signs it will close the intensity gap with competitors. The EU's lower overall R&D intensity is mainly due to structural factors like sector mix rather than underinvestment. Individual EU firms invest similarly in R&D as competitors in their sectors. But smaller EU firms invest less in R&D than US counterparts. Most global corporate R&D is concentrated in the US, EU, Japan, and a few industries. The findings suggest EU policy should address industrial structure and attract more top global R&D investors to help achieve its R

Marco Marinucci - Mind the Bridge - Stanford - 2010

Burton Lee

This document summarizes the state of entrepreneurship and venture finance in Italy. It notes that Italy has a large number of small and medium enterprises but lacks large companies. Innovation plays a minor role in the economy. Venture capital investment is also limited, with only around €70 million invested annually in early-stage startups. While Italy performs well in basic research, there are issues in commercializing research into businesses due to a lack of technology transfer and entrepreneurial skills. The document proposes building bridges to discover and nurture Italian talent, provide training, showcase promising startups, and connect them with partners and investors in Silicon Valley to help address these challenges.

The document discusses how a firm's routines can indicate its ability to scale up and grow. As firms grow, they must transform from informal teams to well-organized bureaucracies through redesigning routines, infrastructure, and systems. Firms using improvised or quasi-illegal routines engaged in "bricolage" are not well-positioned for growth. Instead, during quiet periods firms should redesign routines to automate processes, reduce costs, and develop a culture prepared for innovation and growth. Redesigning routines can prepare firms for subsequent expansion by enhancing efficiency and organizational capabilities.

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.

This document discusses how immediate post-contractual negotiations can help foster more cooperative relationships between clients and contractors on construction projects. It analyzes 4 case studies, finding that these negotiations allow goals to be aligned, problems to be jointly solved before construction starts, and contractor expertise to be integrated into design and planning. This resembles the effects of partnering approaches but provides an alternative for smaller, less complex projects where partnering may not be feasible. The research concludes that immediate post-contractual negotiations can help clients take better advantage of contractor insights while minimizing discussions and renegotiations later in the process.

Project finance is a method of arranging financing where the lenders rely primarily on the cash flows of the project being financed, rather than the balance sheets of its sponsors. It establishes a single purpose company to develop, build, and operate an infrastructure or industrial project based on its projected cash flows. Project risks are transferred and shared among stakeholders, with lenders relying on the project's assets and cash flows for repayment rather than recourse to the sponsors. Key risks like construction, operation, maintenance, revenue, and permits are typically borne by private sector parties rather than the public sector.

Procurement design is critical to the success of government contracting. Two key case studies are highlighted: 1) Melbourne trams and trains franchises - The franchises were operationally successful but one operator withdrew after suffering $300 million in losses due to an unrealistic bid based on misunderstanding requirements and overestimating patronage. Officials were found to have generated "bid fever" where price was the sole factor. 2) National Health Service IT project - The project was beset by delays and cost overruns after requirements were poorly defined at the start. Officials failed to properly understand the scale and complexity of the project. The lessons are that procurement officials must clearly define requirements upfront, avoid competitions solely

Procurement design is crucial to the success of government contracting. Officials must clearly specify requirements and select suitable partners at commercially sustainable prices. However, in some cases studied, contracts were signed before projects were fully defined. Additionally, excessive focus on price over quality and unrealistic assessments of requirements led to failures, as seen in the Melbourne trams and trains example where the leading operator withdrew due to large financial losses. Proper procurement design is key to aligning public and private interests and avoiding controversies.

Jonas Törnblom, Director Marketing and Communication, Envac Group

Envac AB aims to contribute to better urban environments through innovative waste collection systems. Nordic countries can help rapidly urbanizing cities achieve UN sustainability goals through sharing best practices in areas like district heating and renewable energy. Key differences in Nordic governance include independent city finances, flat structures, solution-orientation, and trust between public and private sectors. Examples from Stockholm, like district energy networks using sewage and renewable sources, have inspired many but created little export. To increase exports of Nordic sustainable solutions requires intensified public-private cooperation at home and abroad, better documentation of best practices, communicating solutions in multiple languages, and educating foreign decision makers on the Nordic model.

Children in urban planning: Barnetråkk, Norway

The document discusses the use of the "Kid's Tracks" method for involving children and youth in urban planning processes. Kid's Tracks is a mapping exercise where children document how they use their neighborhoods. Their results identify important areas, access issues, and community values. Three municipalities that used Kid's Tracks are highlighted: Ski identified a need for more public spaces in the city center; Giske found poor access to the shoreline and nature; and Bodø recognized non-active areas. Lessons learned are that Kid's Tracks is only a participation tool, it creates a new focus on social values, and involving children makes participation more fun.
