Abstract

Since the late 1990s in Portugal, regional policy makers have become increasingly interested in using the concept of regional innovation systems as a useful framework for analysing how the local technological infrastructure can become more effective in helping local diffusion of relevant internationally available technologies. Based on the experience of Lisbon and Tagus Valley, this paper proposes conceptual insights and methodologies on which to surmount policy analysis and formulation for regional development through innovation. It proposes to separate stylised functions of an innovation system from its component-organisations. Also, using the case of Lisbon and Tagus Valley, it examines how business enterprises make use of the available system functions and proposes to segment support needs based on levels of enterprise technological capability.
