Disruptive technologies: Advances that will transform life, business, and the global economy. The relentless parade of new technologies is unfolding on many fronts.
Almost every advance is billed as a breakthrough, and the list of “next big things” grows ever longer. Not every emerging technology will alter the business or social landscape—but some truly do have the potential to disrupt the status quo, alter the way people live and work, and rearrange value pools. It is therefore critical that business and policy leaders understand which technologies will matter to them and prepare accordingly. Disruptive technologies: Advances that will transform life, business, and the global economy, a report from the McKinsey Global Institute, cuts through the noise and identifies 12 technologies that could drive truly massive economic transformations and disruptions in the coming years.

EARTO. Great stuff at Innovation on the Fringe — Katie Lips. European ICT sector maintains its R&D drive - News & events - JRC.

This is one of the main findings of a new report by the JRC's Institute for Prospective Technological Studies (IPTS), which also highlights that with a ratio of 5.3% in 2009, the R&D intensity of this sector was more than four times the average of all business sectors in the EU (1.2%). Innovation. Le paradoxe révélateur des startups israéliennes. Article publié dans le supplément Science&Techno du Monde daté du 28 juin Israël a deux des éléments clés pour réussir dans les technologies de l'information : des prix Nobel (témoins de la qualité de l'enseignement de haut niveau) et de l'argent prêt à s'investir dans des entreprises à risques.
N'est-ce pas ce qui fait la force de Silicon Valley? Reste à faire se rencontrer les deux. Telle est la fonction de Yissum, une entreprise créée en 1964 par l'Université Hébraïque de Jérusalem avec pour objectif de "protéger et commercialiser" la propriété intellectuelle générée par ses professeurs. Vice président de la recherche pendant 8 ans Hervé Bercovier a participé activement à la gestion de la société. Résultat affiché sur le site de la société : 7.000 brevets et 72 sociétés créées. L'état – dont on tend trop souvent à minimiser le rôle, y compris à Silicon Valley - a su créer très tôt les conditions de mobilisation d'importantes ressources financières.

News :: Science and innovation, an essential factor for competitiveness and growth in Europe (30/04/2012) Europe needs innovation more than ever before to support sustainable growth and create new jobs, to replace those lost in the crisis.

Geneva, December 20, 2011 PR/2011/701 Press Conference A new report published by WIPO today shows that intellectual property (IP) filings worldwide rebounded strongly in 2010 after a considerable decline in 2009. The recovery in IP filings was stronger than the overall economic recovery.
Patent and trademark filings grew by 7.2% and 11.8% respectively in 2010 compared to growth of 5.1% in the global gross domestic product (GDP), with China and the United States (US) accounting for the greatest share of the increased filings. In Europe, IP filing growth by France, Germany and the UK far exceeded the GDP growth rate of the three largest European economies in 2010.1. Peter Smirniotopoulos: We Need an Education System that Promotes Creativity, Innovation, and Critical Thinking. This is the second in a three-part series on the need for education reform in the United States. The first installment, "Doubling-Down on Dumb: The GOP War on Being Smart," explored the emerging political discourse criticizing public education and being well-educated, and how the toxic environment it creates makes real reform even more problematic.
This installment argues in favor of a paradigm shift in primary and secondary education. In early October 2011, I wrote "Three Innovative Ideas, Which Could Help the Economy,... but No One's Talking About Them," In that blog entry I argued that comprehensive education reform was one "innovative idea" that could help transform the domestic economy. Specifically, I suggested that: Reforming the U.S. public education system to make it less like a factory processing future workers, and focusing instead on creating a nation of thinkers, might seem counterintuitive to matching up high school and college grads with scarcely available jobs.
