Innovation is crucial to long-term economic growth, even more so in the
aftermath of the financial and economic crisis. In this volume, the OECD and
the World Bank jointly take stock of how globalisation is posing new
challenges for innovation and growth in both developed and developing
countries, and how countries are coping with them. The authors discuss options
for policy initiatives that can foster technological innovation in the pursuit
of faster and sustainable growth.

The various chapters highlight how the emergence of an integrated global
market affects the impact of national innovation policy. What seemed like
effective innovation strategies (e.g. policies designed to strengthen the R&D;
capacity of domestic firms) are no longer sufficient for effective catch-up.
The more open and global nature of innovation makes innovation policies more
difficult to design and implement at the national scale alone. These
challenges are further complicated by new phenomena, such as global value
chains and the fragmentation of production, the growing role of global
corporations, and the ICT revolution. Where and why a global corporation
chooses to anchor its production affects the playing field for OECD and
developing economies alike.
