Joan Bellavista and Luis Sanz

Science and Public Policy, 2009, vol. 36, issue 7, 499-510

Abstract: This introductory paper explores a number of topics on creativity and innovation discussed at the IASP World Conference held in Barcelona in 2007. The papers selected for this special issue are introduced, and theoretical and methodological approaches related to creativity and innovation are discussed. The fundamentals, strategies, statistics, programs and networking variables concerning worldwide science and technology (S&T) parks are considered. The paper stresses the impact of the array of knowledge sources. It also analyses the role of the powerful, tangible and intangible assets of the existing S&T parks as well as the management of the many agents active in organised network structures.
