Abstract: Abstract Science and technology, and innovation in particular, have become a critical concern of policymakers and politicians. Throughout Asia, there has been a concerted effort, through national and subnational policies, to improve technological capabilities and to create an environment of technological entrepreneurship. These policies, of course, differ by location, but there is a degree of convergence as all of the economies in the region expand financial and institutional support for small and medium-sized enterprises; foster university-industry linkages and promote university start-ups; and build cooperative agreements between state labs and private industry.
