Download or read book Spurring Innovation Led Growth in Argentina written by Tugba Gurcanlar and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2021-05-31 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anew, innovation-led growth model would enable Argentina to increase economic stability and achieve stronger shared prosperity. Argentina can escape boom-and-bust cycles and accelerate its recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic with an innovation-driven economy that, in addition to factor accumulation, fuels higher productivity growth across all its sectors. Such a growth model should build on Argentina’s strengths in human capital, research, and firm-level capabilities, which would help diversify the economy and make it more inclusive and less susceptible to external shocks, providing the country with a stronger buffer at times of uncertainty. Despite the volatility of the past few decades, Argentina has been able to develop important pockets of success in high-end research and in frontier productive sectors such as biotechnology and knowledge economy. All of these should be better exploited and strengthened through public-private partnerships, targeted investments, and an enabling business environment to increase innovation’s contribution to economic growth. A resilient economic recovery will, in part, require a long-term vision and a policy framework that builds a sustainable national innovation system. To contribute to the strengthening of such a national innovation system, this report reviews holistically the innovation performance in Argentina, identifies some of the main gaps and strengths, and discusses appropriate policy responses. The report also examines regional differences in innovation performance and reviews the policy effectiveness of recent initiatives that have focused on industry and science linkages and knowledge-based entrepreneurship. The lessons from these impact evaluations and fi ndings of the comparative evaluation of Argentina’s innovation landscape are intended to provide guidance in the design and strengthening of existing and future innovation policies in Argentina.

Download or read book Innovation Equality written by Joshua Gans and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2019-10-29 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How to get more innovation and more equality. Is economic inequality the price we pay for innovation? The amazing technological advances of the last two decades—in such areas as artificial intelligence, genetics, and materials—have benefited society collectively and rewarded innovators handsomely: we get cool smartphones and technology moguls become billionaires. This contributes to a growing wealth gap; in the United States; the wealth controlled by the top 0.1 percent of households equals that of the bottom ninety percent. Is this the inevitable cost of an innovation-driven economy? Economist Joshua Gans and policy maker Andrew Leigh make the case that pursuing innovation does not mean giving up on equality—precisely the opposite. In this book, they outline ways that society can become both more entrepreneurial and more egalitarian. All innovation entails uncertainty; there's no way to predict which new technologies will catch on. Therefore, Gans and Leigh argue, rather than betting on the future of particular professions, we should consider policies that embrace uncertainty and protect people from unfavorable outcomes. To this end, they suggest policies that promote both innovation and equality. If we encourage innovation in the right way, our future can look more like the cheerful techno-utopia of Star Trek than the dark techno-dystopia of The Terminator.

This book was released on 2023-12-29 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The necessity for the fundamental practice of regulating fair competition in a globalized world cannot be overstated. This promotes innovation, productivity, and serves as a safeguard against monopolies that could stifle progress. Regulating Fair Competition Toward Sustainable Development Goals is an insightful and comprehensive exploration of the vital link between competition law and policy and the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). At its core, this book delves into the crucial role of fair competition in fostering innovation and driving economic growth. By encouraging corporations to continuously seek novel ideas and invest in research and development, fair competition paves the way for improved productivity and cost-effective production. Moreover, this legal framework stands as a bulwark against monopolies, which can suppress innovation, limit consumer choice, and escalate prices. The editors deftly elucidate the importance of competition law and policy in creating an open and fair marketplace that benefits consumers, businesses, and the environment. Bringing together a distinguished collection of academics and industry experts, this book delves into a broad spectrum of topics, including economy, environment, energy, technology, employment, business, and management. By examining various perspectives, the book offers a nuanced understanding of the implementations and limitations of competition law and policy in the context of sustainable development. This timely and significant volume caters to a diverse audience comprising academics, students, policy makers, and government and private research institutions. Furthermore, industry leaders and corporations will find valuable insights on how fair competition can foster sustainable development, making this book a must-read for those seeking to navigate the intersection of competition law and the SDGs.
