1. INNOPOLIS Policy Simulation Draft for Discussion Prague 19 th October 2011

2. Aims Development of the best policy practice guide: aimed at policy- makers at the regional level, & will be used in conjunction with part (a) in order to advance the process of knowledge exchange & the innovativeness of enterprises. Development of a computer simulation that can be used in the process of best policy transfer. This will allow for the specificities of the socio-economic context, the regulatory framework, and policy objectives.

3. Resources yINNOPLIS Guide to Knowledge Exchange for Policymakers yINNOPLIS Guide to Best Policy Practices for Policymakers yOther INNOPLIS material yOther similar tools and resources

4. Approach The simulation tool is intended to aid decision makers in policy formulation. The tool needs to be able to: Characterise the current situation Identify strengths & weaknesses Identify areas for improvement through appropriate policy development Policy development to be supported by the INNOPOLIS KE & BPP Guides The tool needs to bring together appropriate quantitative & qualitative data in a logical and easy to understand fashion

5. Suggested Approach yInitial draft only yVery much for discussion yNow and after the meeting!
