Science.PublicPolicyVol39\5. Innovation policy roadmapping as a systemic instrument for forward-looking.pdf

Facilitating policy implementation (widening the change capacities in a certain policy community..Embedding participation in policy-making..

Changes at the landscape level create pressure on the regime..Destabilization of the regime creates windows of opportunity for niche innovations (Geels 2002,2005;

The second way to apply a roadmapping approach to policy design is to facilitate systemic change by identifying those societal needs

Systemic change can be facilitated through different policies, e g. regulation and taxes, and through policy instruments that, for example, focus on public procurement,

In IPRM, the second level of policies, policy instruments and regulatory changes is critical. IPRM endorses the positioning of the policy practices in a dynamic socio-technical context,

In addition, diffusion of innovations often depends on changes in infrastructure, information systems, organizational practices and social institutions.

The vast amount of data coming from these sources can be analysed in terms of potential signals of change,

or reveal changes, modifications and disruptions of existing emerging issues in a significant way. Automatic tools are seen as methods to support the scanning for potentially highly important weak signals

This can enable faster and timelier assessments and thus earlier detection of events, changes and possible weak signals.
