Abstract

Developing integrated innovation policies has become increasingly important for the EU and OECD countries in recent years. This article examines the preconditions for promoting such policies in Finland by analysing the operation of the Science and Technology Policy Council. As a high-level coordinating body led by the Prime Minister, the Council has become internationally renowned and attempts have been made to transfer the model to several countries. The article analyses the Council's capabilities for developing integrated innovation policy by looking at its political position and power, representative structure and the comprehensiveness of its policy guidelines.
