Policy-mix evaluation: Governance challenges from new place-based innovation policies

Edurne Magro and James Wilson

Research Policy, 2019, vol. 48, issue 10

Abstract: The policy mix concept has become popular in innovation policy literature. It is particularly relevant for complex challenges such as sustainable industrial transitions that require joined-up interventions from different policy domains. Yet finding the right policy mix for a given challenge is strongly conditioned by the governance context in which individual policies emerge and evolve over time. In particular, the evaluation of policy mixes in a regional context is often neglected.
