Engineering and Technology Management Faculty Publications and Presentations

This article seeks to undertake a critical assessment of the changing position of public science in the entrepreneurial ecosystem of the countries on the periphery of European research. These countries are driven by new innovation paradigm based on entrepreneurship, which are implemented within the European Smart specialization strategy (S3). This article argues that S3 is widely implemented in the cohesion countries and, while it provides substantial resources for science, technology, and innovation, it fails to provide sustainability in the public research sector. This has direct implications for policies concerning innovation and entrepreneurial ecosystems. In order to prove the thesis, the …

The Science Looking Forward Subcommittee was created to evaluate these three principal areas:

1. How FDA can meet emerging and future trends in science and technology
2. How FDA can better use collaborations to advance its mission and
3. How FDA can support a culture of scientific excellence and creativity.

The Subcommittee was also asked to assess progress since …
