New developments in bio- and nanotechnologies and also in information and communication technologies have shaped the research environment in the last decade. Increasingly, highly educated experts in R&D departments are collaborating with scientists and researchers at universities and research institutes to develop new technologies. Transnational companies that have acquired various firms in different countries need to manage diverse R&D strategies and cultures. The new knowledge-based economy permeates across companies, universities, research institutes and countries, creating a cross-disciplinary, global environment. Clearly, managing technology in this new climate presents significant chal...
Sicherheitsforschung wird als einer der Schwerpunkte im 7. EU-Forschungsrahmenprogramm ein vorrangiges Forschungsthema sein. Die EU-Mitgliedstaaten sind aufgerufen, subsidare oder komplementare nationale Beitrage zu einem zukunftigen Forschungsprogramm zu liefern. Die Osterreichische Akademie der Wissenschaften (OAW) und die ARC systems research GmbH haben im Auftrag des Bundesministeriums fur Verkehr, Innovation und Technologie (BMVIT) eine an osterreichische Verhaltnisse angepasste Begriffsfassung erarbeitet und Vorschlage fur eine zukunftige osterreichische Sicherheitsforschungsagenda zusammengestellt. Im Wege eines Bottom-up-Prozesses wurden Bestands- und Bedarfserhebungen in allen Bunde...
The theory of bandwagon effects in high technology industries, illustrated by historical and contemporary case studies.
New developments in bio- and nanotechnologies and also in information and communication technologies have shaped the research environment in the last decade. Increasingly, highly educated experts in R&D departments are collaborating with scientists and researchers at universities and research institutes to develop new technologies. Transnational companies that have acquired various firms in different countries need to manage diverse R&D strategies and cultures. The new knowledge-based economy permeates across companies, universities, research institutes and countries, creating a cross-disciplinary, global environment. Clearly, managing technology in this new climate presents significant challenges.This book comprises selected papers from the 14th International Conference on Management of Technology, which was convened under the auspices of IAMOT and UNIDO on 22-26 May 2005 in Vienna, Austria. It deals with some important aspects of these challenges, and discusses in detail the changing dynamics of innovation and technology management. It will certainly appeal to academics, scientists, managers, and policy makers alike.
Founded in 2007 to fund basic research, the European Research Council (ERC) has become the most revered instrument in European science policy and one of the world’s most important focal points for the funding of scientific research. Its grants are much sought-after by researchers and scholars and it is widely considered to have had a major impact on research communities and institutions across Europe. How did this remarkable organization, the creation of which was widely regarded as a ‘miracle’, come into being, what has it achieved and how is it likely to adapt in the face of current and future challenges? This book is the first comprehensive history of the creation and development of...
