The Influence and Implications of Public Sponsorship in Europe
摘要
This chapter examines the role of public sponsorship in shaping national innovation systems through Research and Development (R&D) funding. It highlights how governments, particularly in Europe, the USA, and Japan, use public policies and programs to foster research, innovation, and collaboration. The chapter focuses on EU-funded R&D consortia under Horizon 2020 and Eureka (2014–2020), revealing their governance, performance, and broader implications for European research and innovation ecosystems.
