In the emerging new collaborative economic order, innovation is
achieved by an integrated process of collaboration between
policymakers, business and society. Often, the focus for this
collaboration is at a regional level. Creating Collaborative
Advantage examines the trends in innovation policy that reflect
this new thinking and regional focus. This book develops the view
that collaboration is one of many ways of organising a competitive
economy. It asks how, when and where collaboration is a meaningful
way of organisation. It explores collaboration at business level,
business networks between companies, and a wider collaborative
coalition between business and public authorities. It is not a
manual, a 'how to do it', because there is no single
straightforward universal model to replace current orthodoxy on
economic development, but it will enable people to learn. The
contributors to this unique book have been involved with the
implementation of some of the most outstanding examples of
collaborative approaches, it therefore gives an outstanding picture
of diversity, inbuilt comparisons and contrast, and debate between
the cases. The co-authors give their understanding of these issues,
but the book tries to establish some common understandings and
bring the concept of collaboration to a larger audience, and to
increase interest in a field which requires further exploration.
Policy makers, advisers and administrators at all levels of
government, those involved in research and development, and
business leaders and educators, will find this book invaluable,
together with readers having an academic interest in the subject of
innovation.
