The purposes of this study are three-folds. First, it introduces the globally discussing concept of ‘Inclusive Innovation’ to Korean policy arena and tries to enhance its concept. For this purpose, it reviews various international and domestic literatures on innovation policies for inclusive growth in the context of various global initiatives including UN SDGs. It also analyses possible working mechanism on how innovation can achieve both inclusiveness and growth. Second, this study reviews diverse Korean policies from the angle of ‘Inclusive Innovation’ and develop several successful policy cases that can be contributed to the global discussion. It overviews past and current Korean polities in four different aspects including social, territorial, industrial and gender inclusiveness. It identifies five prominent policy cases and contributes them to the OECD’s Policy Toolkit for inclusive innovation, which are presented in the appendix. Third, this study extends the scope of ‘Inclusive Innovation’ to the global dimension and tries to develop innovation strategy that can enhance global inclusiveness. It argues that global society should pay more attention on widening North-South gaps, which are largely resulted from widening innovation capacities, and need to develop effective innovation strategies that help low-income and developing countries in promoting their innovation capacities. It proposes several specific programs that global society can deliver together including expansion of Appropriate Technology Centers for helping especially low-income countries, programs for strengthening STI related institutional and policy capacities of developing countries, and sustainable operation of educational and training programs. There are a couple of remaining challenges or future tasks. One is conceptual elaboration of ‘Open and Inclusive Science’ framework and its application to the global inclusive innovation efforts. Another is innovation policy for generation inclusiveness - i.e., reducing gaps between generations possibly caused by current innovation policies.
