Chapter 9 in Growth Through Innovation, 2014, pp 107-120 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Since the mid-nineteenth century technology has increasingly profited from science. The two develop in parallel: Science drives technology and technology provides more and more sophisticated research equipment. But science heavily depends on serendipity and thus many rolls of the dice are needed until a project is successful. This requires major investments and is the reason why it works better in big companies or close to universities.
