Triple Helix of innovation: introduction

Abstract

A Triple Helix of overlapping, yet relatively independent institutional spheres is required to capture contemporary innovation processes. The model is a methodological tool: the focus on the recursive overlay of communications among universities, industries and governments allows for the organization of research questions in relation to the various models and metaphors. In this theme issue, by focusing both on national contexts and on a variety of relevant systems of reference for assessing R&D and innovation, we hope to inform policy-makers and policy analysts about the potential of the Triple Helix model as a means of understanding processes of innovation.
