The papers in the sixteenth volume of the National Bureau of
Economic Research's Innovation Policy and the Economy offer
insights into the changing landscape of innovation by highlighting
recent developments in the financing of innovation and
entrepreneurship and in the economics of innovation and
intellectual property. The first chapter, by Ramana Nanda and
Matthew Rhodes-Kropf, explores the process of experimentation in
the context of financing of technology start-ups by venture
capitalists. The second, by Yael Hochberg, also analyzes the role
of entrepreneurial experimentation by systematically examining the
rise of start-up accelerators. The third chapter, by Heidi
Williams, studies the relationship between the strength of
intellectual property rights and innovation. The fourth paper, by
Fiona Scott Morton and Carl Shapiro discusses recent changes to the
patent system and whether they align the rewards from intellectual
property with the marginal contributions made by innovators and
other stakeholders. The final chapter, by Karim Lakhani and Kevin
Boudreau, focuses on the potential use of field innovation
experiments and contests to inform innovation policy and
management. Together, these essays continue to highlight the
importance of economic theory and empirical analysis in innovation
policy research.
