Summary
Innovation agencies around the world are increasingly considering socio-economic-technological challenges that can be tackled through innovation policies (EC Innovation Union; OECD Innovation Strategy). The idea is that, through such challenges, which can relate to such issues as climate change, cancer, or the demographic-aging crisis, innovation policy should produce solutions for societal problems. The present chapter argues that such challenge-driven innovation policies require the traditional market failure justification for policy intervention, and even the system failure one, to be complemented with a more active market creating framework. To this end, the chapter draws on and advances an analysis of the role of public policy in the economy that can provide a more strategic and mission-oriented approach (Mazzucato 2018).
