Managing Emerging Technologies for Socio-Economic Impact is an
important contribution to both the literature and practice of
managing emerging technology. Importantly, this book not only
considers the economic impact but also the wider societal impact
and benefit. It is recommended reading for all those who aspire to
steward emergent technologies into reality.' - Martin Curley, Vice
President, Director, Intel Labs Europe, Intel Corporation'This book
offers a series of fascinating studies about the emergence of new
technologies in different eco-systems of
university-industry-government relations.' - Loet Leydesdorff,
University of Amsterdam, the Netherlands 'The chapters in this
exciting new book explore the ways in which new technologies
emerge, develop and are then commercialized. The chapters, many of
which are by exciting young European scholars, are both
theoretically and empirically sophisticated. If the reader is
interested in how emerging technologies create socio-economic
impact, this book will provide them with unique new insights. I
recommend the book to all readers.'- Martin Kenney, University of
California, Davis, US The development of emerging technologies
demands a rapidly expanding knowledge base and intensive
collaboration across organizational, institutional and cultural
borders. This book is the first of its kind to focus on the
management of key emerging technologies and their social and
economic impact in Europe. Split into four parts, across 17
chapters, the scholars offer multiple levels of analysis concerning
the management of emerging technologies across various sectors
ranging from nanotechnology, renewable energy and cloud computing
to synthetic biology and particle therapy for cancer. They present
their research findings in critical areas including: -
organizational capabilities for technological innovation in key
enabling technologies - collaboration and networking to shape their
emergence and progression - strategic challenges for policy makers
who influence the sustainable and responsible development of
emerging technologies - how such technologies affect work and
communication practices in a variety of organizational settings.
This book is a must-read for innovation practitioners, academics
and policy makers who take interest in the on going debate about
how to shape innovation policy and manage emerging technologies.
