The Six Countries Programme (6CP) with the support of the Dutch province of Noord-Brabant organizes an international conference titled´
“Can policy follow the dynamics of global innovation platforms?”
to explore policy options in view of the recent global innovation dynamics (see attach).
The key question is how and under what conditions regions and countries can benefit from the development of global value chains.
The conference will bring together state of the art thinking and research on the topic and is aimed at setting the agenda for future research and policymaking. Rather than academic papers, the conference provides solicited position papers in which the authors/presenters summarize their perception of the problem followed by their views on future trends and policy options.
The agenda is organised in such a way that it provides ample opportunity to discuss consequences and policy options.
