This infographic provides you insights into how innovation networks form in a region. They require a discipline of collaboration that leads to a strategic focus and collaborative investments. Strategic Doing provides the platform discipline that participants follow. This is the bask protocol Purdue is following in New Jersey with our partner, the New Jersey Innovation Institute.
The Accelerating Innovation for Development Initiative was built on the realization that while the private sector used well-developed innovation practices to generate value and growth, these practices had yet to take hold in the social sector. The application of these same concepts effectively in the social sector could lead to products, processes, and services that could significantly advance the lives of poor and vulnerable people. It was one of the first Initiatives approved in the 2006-2007 period under the Foundation’s refreshed strategy and model.
The Initiative supported the testing, application, or scaling up of three models of innovation that produced new or modified processes, products, or services that were potentially valuable for poor and vulnerable people around the world. These three models of innovation are: open source innovation, user centered innovation, and user led innovation.
Because the Initiative was structured to test different innovation processes with major grants, the evaluation report captures learning from in-depth case studies of 6 individual key grants - 2 from each model of innovation - and their effects on the broader field of innovation.
The evaluation report features findings and case studies from site visits in four countries spanning three continents, additional interviews with funders and other individuals working in the field, as well as a literature and document review and video coverage.
Demand for evaluation services is growing in the impact investing industry. Yet, much of the evaluation community remains unaware of the industry and its performance assessment requirements. This paper proposes five channels, or doorways, through which professional evaluators can learn about and engage with the field of impact investing.
Developing university ecosystems represents a key opportunity to accelerate commercialization of federally funded research. This presentation, made in February 2016, represents an early outline of ideas. To learn more, connect with Ed Morrison at edmorrison@purdue.edu

At this gathering you will deepen your skills at designing and guiding complex collaborations and learn emerging practices for taking on “wicked” problems. You will take away new insights about how, by following simple rules, you can develop strategies in open, loosely connected networks. The cost of the conference is $375
Introduction to Strategic Doing for Purdue's Discovery ParkEd Morrison
Center directors and researchers at Purdue's Discovery Park will be using Strategic Doing to form multi-disciplinary research teams to tackle Grand Challenges in food, water and energy. This presentation provides the directors an introduction of the development of this agile strategy method.
To tackle global and societal challenges like the SDG’s and Climate Change - we need collaborations at a scale beyond individual projects and organisations.
We need to invest in building our portfolio capabilities - so that we can have scalable impact and work across the whole system for transformation.
By orchestrating entire innovation ecosystems, we can bridge and create coherence between the adaptive and practical efforts that are at play. This session will focus on building an understanding of the capabilities and capacities that are needed in organisations to work in systems transformations.
In the Innovation Ecosystems for Transformation session of the States of Change Learning Festival 2020, Mikael Seppälä from Sitra Lab spoke about Orchestrating Innovation Ecosystems
(and Portfolios) for Transformation.

For decades, academics have promoted the idea that clusters are important for regional prosperity. We have long heard about the "Why", but rarely the "How".
This infographic explains the process of how clusters form. It is based on extensive work learning how to build the complex collaborations that form the basis of regional innovation clusters.
Many networks organize governance and operations with structures that mirror those of organizations: governing boards, committees, and operations staff. Unfortunately, these structures have often been a bad fit with networks, leading to decreased involvement and engagement by network participants who aren't on the governing board and shrinking network size and impact.
More and more networks are experimenting with and co-creating innovative network governance and structures that are self-organizing, encouraging and supporting the formation of collaborative circles for many or all of the operations and coordination functions of the network.
June Holley will share examples and offer several checklists and strategy worksheets to help your network determine if these new structures might be appropriate for them.

Financial Assets: Debit vs Equity Securities.pptxWrito-Finance
financial assets represent claim for future benefit or cash. Financial assets are formed by establishing contracts between participants. These financial assets are used for collection of huge amounts of money for business purposes.
Two major Types: Debt Securities and Equity Securities.
Debt Securities are Also known as fixed-income securities or instruments. The type of assets is formed by establishing contracts between investor and issuer of the asset.
• The first type of Debit securities is BONDS. Bonds are issued by corporations and government (both local and national government).
• The second important type of Debit security is NOTES. Apart from similarities associated with notes and bonds, notes have shorter term maturity.
• The 3rd important type of Debit security is TRESURY BILLS. These securities have short-term ranging from three months, six months, and one year. Issuer of such securities are governments.
• Above discussed debit securities are mostly issued by governments and corporations. CERTIFICATE OF DEPOSITS CDs are issued by Banks and Financial Institutions. Risk factor associated with CDs gets reduced when issued by reputable institutions or Banks.
Following are the risk attached with debt securities: Credit risk, interest rate risk and currency risk
There are no fixed maturity dates in such securities, and asset’s value is determined by company’s performance. There are two major types of equity securities: common stock and preferred stock.
Common Stock: These are simple equity securities and bear no complexities which the preferred stock bears. Holders of such securities or instrument have the voting rights when it comes to select the company’s board of director or the business decisions to be made.
Preferred Stock: Preferred stocks are sometime referred to as hybrid securities, because it contains elements of both debit security and equity security. Preferred stock confers ownership rights to security holder that is why it is equity instrument
<a href="https://www.writofinance.com/equity-securities-features-types-risk/" >Equity securities </a> as a whole is used for capital funding for companies. Companies have multiple expenses to cover. Potential growth of company is required in competitive market. So, these securities are used for capital generation, and then uses it for company’s growth.
Concluding remarks
Both are employed in business. Businesses are often established through debit securities, then what is the need for equity securities. Companies have to cover multiple expenses and expansion of business. They can also use equity instruments for repayment of debits. So, there are multiple uses for securities. As an investor, you need tools for analysis. Investment decisions are made by carefully analyzing the market. For better analysis of the stock market, investors often employ financial analysis of companies.

and how do they communicate to their different audiences?
3. Rules and requests
• Ask questions through the
chat function
• Presentation and questions
will be shared
• Recording the session
5. • A forum for learning collectively around common, complex & important
cluster evaluation challenges
• Sharing learning
• Identifying gaps
• Trying new approaches
www.tci-network.org/evaluation
TCI Cluster Evaluation Working Group
6. Despite the proliferation of cluster initiatives, there is a shortage of
evaluation research and practice
– Leaves cluster policies open to questions
– Prevents learning within clusters
– Prevents learning about policy
It is a challenge because the impacts of working with clusters are hard
to measure: they are intangible and difficult to isolate
– Clusters generate space for tackling issues that may only generate solutions in
the longer term
– Clusters are built on collaborative dynamics: trust and social capital
– Cluster activities spill over to agents outside the cluster initiative
– Cluster policies interact with other competitiveness policies
– Clusters are extremely heterogeneous
How do we develop better approaches to capture the
impact of clusters and cluster policies and foster
learning around how to improve them?

36. A (preliminary) definition of
system level results
A system level result is a milestone, event or outcome
that has been influenced by (a set of) actions of the
cluster/collaborative initiative, and which has a lasting,
longer-term impact on several organisations/actors in
the territorial system (both within and beyond the
cluster/collaborative initiative).
Results on the system level typically spread to the
surrounding society and affect different types of systems
(sectoral, regulatory, social, environmental, etc.).

61. How do clusters monitor and
evidence the difference they make in
these areas, and how do they
communicate to their different
audiences?
62. A structured approach for evidencing
system-level effects over time
• A guide ”How can we follow system-level results?” (explaining the why,
what and how)
- Tips on documenting, prioritising, categorising and communicating
important events within the regional innovation system
- Suggestions for support from action researchers
• Embedded in annual reporting – with increased structure and
harmonisation
• New possibilities for visualising, analysing and communicating ”system
result profiles”
- For individual initiatives
- For the full portfolio of Vinnväxt initiatives
- For tracking system-level changes over time
