The figure shows the behavior over time for the outcome indicator‘fraction of new technologies of total energy generation'as well as the Gaussian Kernel Density Estimates (KDES) 56 of the end states.

although hardly improving the extremes, outperforms the‘basic policy'and‘no policy'ensembles on this key performance indicator:

The column‘static plan'in Table 5 shows the results of this analysis. Looking at the various outcome indicators,

evidence refers to reliable documentation, such as statistics and indicators or forecasting of economic development through macroeconomic modelling.

Nevertheless, the Globalisation Council's process included both expertiseorieente foresight methods (expert panels, expert discussion papers), evidence-oriented foresight methods (indicators and fact reports) and interaction-oriented foresight methods

Finally, both the financial and nonfinancial indicators selected through the PMS should enable new targets

monitoring and evaluation of two new strategic indicators: community satisfaction and participation in decision making. The former increased from 46%into 72,

if the social responsibility indicators used by a higher education institution were aligned sufficiently to its strategic objectives.

The implementation of the proposed system enabled an understanding that indicators in use reflected only philanthropy instead of social inclusion.

The opening up of the organisation's strategic objectives into indicators, targets and initiatives or actions that reflect the true intentions of the institution enabled an overall reassessment of the institution's strategy (phase 1). Moreover, through a systematic consultation of key stakeholders

which lead to increased satisfaction reflected in indicators such as transparency, quality of life, among others. 3. 2. 4. Negative results Through the application of the proposed system it was possible to observe,

with a focus on long term sustainability indicators. These were generated through the development of strategy maps (phase 2), in conjunction with the city of Floriano'polis, SC, Brazil and relevant stakeholders,

in the present era of public funding accountability, remaining viable in the long term seems to be a critical indicator of success. In terms of critical success factors it was interestiin to note that all the studies showed that foresight delivery

it is insufficient as an indicator of success. Eight factors were identified as the critical keys to success in government-led foresight programs:

it is insufficient as an indicator of success. Taken together, the studies identified many similariities For example:

and every single indicator measures only partly aspects of this complex phenomenon. In a sixth and last step we calculated a subsidy quotient for every subsidized firm by dividing the amount of the granted subsidy by the total R&d expendiiture in the period 2000 2002.

indicators, of the subsidized and the non-subsidized firms for four different matching methods. We calculated the differrenc of the means of the two categories of firms (subsidized, non-subsidized) for six innovation variables and four matching methods,

Hence, these results seem to be quite robust across various methods and innovatiio indicators. Having controlled for the size and age of the firms, sector affiliation, region, export propensity,

For the outputorieente indicators the differences vary significantly between only 9 11%for the qualitative selfassesssmen of the technical importance of the innovattion introduced and a threefold to fivefold larger magnitude in the case of sales of products new to the market.

according to our results the larger the subsidy (in relative terms), the larger the impact effect for a series of indicators that measure the economic success of innovation (sales shares of products with different grades of innovativeeness reduction

This could be shown by four different matching methods (with the exception of the nearest neighbour method for the indicator‘importance of introduced innovations from an economic point of view'.
