Abstract

Die Leistung eines Innovationssystems kann anhand der Fähigkeit, zur Frontier oder der höchsten Leistungsgrenze in verschiedenen Bereichen beizutragen, gemessen werden. Die Differenzierung in die vier Frontier-Bereiche Wissenschaft, Technologie, Innovationen und Wirtschaft ermöglicht einen Fokus der Analyse auf die Überleitung von der Wissens- und Technologieproduktion in Beschäftigung und Wertschöpfung. Die beiden Dimensionen der Innovations-Frontier – Strukturwandel in Richtung wissensintensiver Sektoren und Verbesserung der Marktpositionen in bestehenden Spezialisierungen (Upgrading) – können als strategischer Rahmen für die FTI-Politik genutzt werden. Dieser lässt sich effektiver operationalisieren als eine Orientierung an radikalen Innovationen. Eine Anwendung des Konzepts auf Österreich zeigt derzeit gegenüber führenden Innovationsländern einen Rückstand in allen Frontier-Bereichen, besonders in der Wissenschaft und hinsichtlich des Strukturwandels.
