Third Asia-Pacific NIS Forum Diagnosis of NIS and Development of STI Strategies in the Open Innovation Framework 8-9 April 2015, Bangkok, Thailand Measuring Science, Technology and Innovation and STI indicators: an overview of current approaches Mr. N. Srinivasan Coordinator, Science, Technology and Innovation, Asian and Pacific Centre for Transfer of Technology (APCTT) of the United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (ESCAP), New Delhi, India

Plan of Presentation Measuring of STI Current Approaches to STI indicators - R&D Indicators (UNESCAP Statistical Year Book) - Global Innovation Index - OECD Science Industry Scoreboard 2013 - OECD Measuring of STI indicators - 3C/3A Approach

Plan of Presentation Measuring of STI - Required for evidence-based STI policy making and its governance - Developed over a period of time dominated by economic and business settings (GDP, FDI, Export & Import, R&D expenditure and others) - Need for balanced STI-based development of three pillars of sustainable development (Economy, Society and Environment)

Plan of Presentation Major Components of NIS Framework and Strategies - STI infrastructure; skilled human resources; international and national linkages and partnerships among academia, R&D institutions and industries; technology and innovation financing; small and medium-sized enterprises; and major manufacturing industrial sectors, technology intermediaries etc. Challenges for developing countries - Methodology (UNESCO, UNCTAD, OECD, WIPO, World Bank and others ; institutional capacity; inadequate national STI data; lack of knowledge about scattered data across national ministries and institutions and others)

3C/3A Approach Developed by STEPI, Korea in cooperation and partnership with APCTT-ESCAP Desk research on macro economic conditions, one-to-one interview of key national NIS stakeholders, questionnaire survey and STI stakeholders engagement (Nepal and Lao PDR Reports) 3C Diagnosis Componentization Identification of major components of system weakness and bottlenecks in a holistic viewpoint, statistically described and overview of symptoms of a system. Contextualization Structurised and heuristic understanding of identified components in the context of system dynamics with several rounds of deepening diagnosis process. Synthesized diagnosis that provides a plausible explanation of the structural problems of system that leads to consensus among stake-holders by having common understanding of system weaknesses and bottlenecks. Conceptualization 3A Prescription Articulation of Action-oriented, Actor based Policies.
