Innovation Parks: Past, Present, Future Applied Solutions Coalition - PowerPoint PPT Presentation

Innovation Parks: Past, Present, Future Applied Solutions Coalition Santa Fe Workshop October, 2009

Innovation Parks: Past, Present, Future Applied Solutions Coalition Thematic overview: Past: Fixed asset focus Present: Vertical specialization Future: Dynamic knowledge ecosystems

Innovation Parks: Past, Present, Future Applied Solutions Coalition Past: Fixed asset focus • Same as “research” or “technology” parks, generally ex-urban • Attached to research universities or national laboratory • Tenants benefit from proximity to intellectual capital, I.P.

Innovation Parks: Past, Present, Future Applied Solutions Coalition Past: Examples • Research Triangle Park • Sandia Science & Technology Park • ~160 parks in the U.S.

Innovation Parks: Past, Present, Future Applied Solutions Coalition Present: Vertical Specialization • “New Century Cities,” built around a theme • Media, bio-tech current favorites • Benefits from multiple specialists, interactions, synergies

Innovation Parks: Past, Present, Future Applied Solutions Coalition Present: Examples • Biopolis (Singapore) • Digital Media City (Seoul) • Parque de Investigacion e Innovacion Tecnologica (Monterrey, Mexico) Research Parks for the Knowledge Economy Nations are constructing lavish science parks, often with big city amenities, to gain a competitive edge in the global economy

Innovation Parks: Past, Present, Future Applied Solutions Coalition Future: Dynamic knowledge ecosystems • Soft structures, multi-node & distributed networks • Regional innovation ecosystems • The city is the innovation park • Benefits from collaborative activities

Innovation Parks: Past, Present, Future Applied Solutions Coalition Future: Examples • 22@Barcelona • Keystone Innovation Zone • East Bay Green Corridor • Santa Fe Innovation Park

Innovation Parks: Past, Present, Future Applied Solutions Coalition SFIP: A case study • An “applied solutions laboratory” • A place and a process for solving important, complex problems • Santa Fe as a center of excellence in applied innovation

Innovation Parks: Past, Present, Future Applied Solutions Coalition SFIP: Place • Master-planned campus • Specialized facilities, tools, technologies • Public/private partnership • Based on distinctive local resources • Supports trans-disciplinary work

Innovation Parks: Past, Present, Future Applied Solutions Coalition SFIP: Process • Trans-disciplinary collaborations • Rapid ideation & prototyping • Systems-level innovation

Innovation Parks: Past, Present, Future Applied Solutions Coalition SFIP: Participants • CASE + science & technology Partners • Local creative community, institutions • State government, policy & planning • Industry Clients & Partners

Innovation Parks: Past, Present, Future Applied Solutions Coalition SFIP: Programmatic interests • Energy/climate • Education • Health care • Water resources • Sustainable economic development

Innovation Parks: Past, Present, Future Applied Solutions Coalition SFIP: Project example Community Model for the New Energy Economy: • Based on CLEAR model • Finance, policy, social, design enhancements via SFIP • Broad diffusion as a community action platform
