He uses data obtained through questionnaire responses from all the large research and development organizations in Canada to analyse Canada's domestic system of innovation, finding increasing collaboration between universities, government laboratories, and private firms. He concludes that Canada has been quite successful in creating a national system of innovation and that the federal government, through its initiatives and innovative techniques, has been the main factor in the creation of this system.Technological innovationsCanadaTechnological innovationsGovernment policyCanadaTechnology and stateCanadaScience and stateCanadaResearchCanadaTechnological innovationsTechnological innovationsGovernment policyTechnology and stateScience and stateResearch507/.2071Niosi Jorge253540Godin Benoit959942Manseau Andre1820716MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910959003203321Canada's national system of innovation4383090UNINA
