Using S&T foresight to augment organizational tool kits: a Canadian institutional‐entrepreneurial experiment
本文探讨加拿大联邦政府如何通过科技预见项目(STFPP)构建知识共享网络,整合多学科能力,为2015-2025年的研发机遇与挑战做准备,对政策制定者和创新管理者有参考价值。
This paper will explore recent Canadian federal experience in developing S&T foresight and creating knowledge sharing networks aimed at creating integrative capacities and convergent domains that involve fusions of several disciplines. More specifically, the paper will report on the experience of the Office of Technology Foresight (OTF) at the National Research Council of Canada (NRC) and its federal partners (science based departments and agencies – SBDAs) as they carried out a major S&T Foresight Pilot Project (STFPP) to elaborate prospective R&D opportunities and challenges in preparation for contingencies that may have to be confronted in the 10–20 year time horizon of 2015–2025.
