Bridging The Gap: Innovation Brokerage In China

Bridging the Gap: Innovation Brokerage in China explores the crucial role of innovation intermediaries in China's rapidly evolving technological and industrial landscape. Through a collection of reviews and case studies, the book investigates how intermediaries - both public and private - facilitate collaboration, bridge knowledge gaps, and accelerate innovation across sectors.

The book provides an analysis of a broad range of innovation intermediaries, shifting from the Chinese government and private sector leaders like Baidu to broader frameworks such as the engagement ecosystem. Special attention is given to various industries, including aircraft and construction sectors, where brokerage is necessary for aligning technological advancements with sustainability goals.

Furthermore, the book delves into the challenges and opportunities presented by transnational innovation, with insights into academic cooperation between Italy and China, and the role of innovation platforms in enhancing the innovative capacities of SMEs.

By examining both domestic and international perspectives, the book offers a comprehensive analysis of how innovation intermediaries serve as drivers for technological development and economic growth in China.
