Outline:
The innovation system is a key concept in Schumpeterian Economics, which can be analyzed at national, regional, sectoral and even firm levels.
Prof. Keun Lee will introduce his recent works on measuring national innovation systems (NIS) of 45 countries around the worlds, classified into mature, catching up and trapped NIS, using 5 indicators of NIS made up using patent citation data. Also, similar analyses are conducted for 30 regions/cities around the world to show the similarities and differences among them in terms of 7 variables expressing RIS of the cities. A key focus is to identify key characteristics of successfully catching up or upgrading cities, compared with cities in advanced and other emerging economies.
