5. Regional Innovation Indicators madri+d Model Science and Technology (ST) Indicators  Scientific Production Indicators Analyse and pursue ST production of CM R&D statistics (February 2001)  Regional Innovation System Indicators  Intellectual Capital Programme Accounts of industrial sector (March 2001) Technological capital stock estimation (March 2001) Measure IC in universities, RTO, etc

6. Regional Innovation Indicators All Models Difficulties in defining/filling out “good” indicators  Mainly related to NTBF Economic impact Survival rate (after 3, 4, 5, n-years)  More than 250.000 firms Chamber of Commerce  Inaccurate data for practical purposes  More than 95% have less than 2 employees

7. Regional Innovation Indicators Regional Indicator Activities Horizontal Basis  IE of CM (“Institute of Statistics”)  INE (“National Institute of Statistics”) Full link & exploitation of INE results Direct data source access Under specific agreement w/ INE Aggregate versus disaggregate data

11. Regional Innovation Indicators How to Cope with Disadvantages  Common tools Enlarged EU dimension EU Innovation Scoreboard Regional Innovation Scoreboard  Adequate to a more global framework Taking into account EUROSTAT Looking at OECD stats Keeping an eye on UN stats Future development Keep a historical series going  Continuity in actions (EU/National/Regional)
