The “New” Economic Development

Innovative economies are not really about incubators,
accelerators, venture capital, universities, research…
Symptoms, not root causes.
© 2014 Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation
Innovation is not a place.
It’s a state of mind.
© 2014 Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation
But innovation ecosystems are invisible.
So how do we architect the
invisible infrastructure?

So what?
It’s an emerging field, but here are some
early lessons for practitioners...
© 2014 Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation
Lesson #1
OLD: Economies are a black box, so we must shove more
stuff into the box.
NEW: Ideas matter. Successful economies nurture ideas
through the life cycle from birth to full production.
© 2014 Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation
OLD: Innovation is a “thing” that is distinct.
NEW: Innovation and production are ends of the same
spectrum, from idea creation to scale. The key is crossing
that invisible chasm. Constant experimentation and failure
are routine.
Lesson #2
© 2014 Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation
OLD: People are anonymous cogs in the system. Cluster
them to get results.
NEW: People matter. Innovation comes from human
relationships. Individuals form teams, which grow into
startups, mature companies, and institutions.
Lesson #3
© 2014 Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation
OLD: Morality is irrelevant.
NEW: Values matter. Culture is key to driving economic
growth at scale. Certain patterns of behavior cause certain
economic outcomes. Trust is the glue of the social fabric.
Lesson #4
© 2014 Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation
OLD: Economies are based on cold mathematics.
NEW: Economies are a fusion of hard and soft. We can
apply design thinking to economic ecosystems – human-
centered, attuned to the full range of emotional interaction,
conscious of the overall environment.
Lesson #5
© 2014 Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation
OLD: Grow jobs by creating incentives to relocate
businesses from other places.
NEW: Grow what you have organically, by shifting from
zero-sum to positive-sum activity. Help people break down
social barriers of distrust, fear, disconnectedness.
Lesson #6
© 2014 Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation
OLD: Measure the inputs and outputs of an economy.
NEW: Measure the metabolism. Measure the flow of
resources inside a system, including the velocity of ideas
and the nimbleness of organizing teams to bring ideas to
life. Measure social networks for density, fluidity,
connectivity, diversity.
