Countries with the strongest economies today often also have the most vibrant science and technology (STI) sectors in the world. Building such vibrant innovation ecosystems require collaboration among start-ups, SMEs, large corporates, policymakers, NGOs, the public and other innovation stakeholders.  Good science and technology (S&T) policies provide these diverse groups with a framework for working together locally or abroad. In this episode, Dr. Miltos Ladikas will take us into national and global S&T policy development. Through the lens of Technology Assessment (TA), he will discuss and compare centralised and decentralised policy development systems across, in particular, European countries and China using examples including genetically modified (GM) foods and nanotechnology developments.
