Bigger cities produce more
patents per capita

8. The world is not flat: scientific articles
Innovators are better
connected in bigger

9. Ecosystems
Ecosystems
are complex
systems that
contain a
few large
players and
lots of small
players

14. Intuitive surgical is embedded in
the largest network we have
found
• it has more than 20,000
individual inventors
• it stretches from
San Francisco to San Diego
• it involves a large number of
small to medium companies
15. Innovation Ecosystems: New Zealand
• We released the Innovation Ecosystem Map in April
• The map geo-locates inventors and the links between inventors
in Google Earth sciblogs.co.nz/a-measure-of-science

19. A City of Four Million People?
• Economic geography 101:
If New Zealand was a city of four million people, our GDP
per capita would exceed that of Australia
• Can we learn to act like a city of four million?
20. A City of Four Million People?
• The industrial revolution was driven by specialisation and
increasing returns to scale in manufacturing
• The knowledge revolution is being driven by similar effects in
research and development
• In the future, research and development will be undertaken
by large multi-disciplinary teams of specialised researchers
• As a small country, to build these teams we will need to drive
down the spatial transaction costs in generating knowledge
• New Zealand must embrace open research and data
exchange, across Institutes, companies and regions

24. A City of Four Million People: my wishlist
• Organisations will need to collaborate: We need to promote a
culture of openness and information exchange
• People need to find other people: We need better tools for
identifying expertise and IP
• Ideas need to find other ideas: We need better data
management!
