The document discusses case studies that exemplify the triple helix model of innovation. It summarizes the triple helix model at the Research Triangle Park in North Carolina, which brought together government, industry, and universities to create a major science park. It also summarizes case studies in Norway, Indonesia, and Italy, showing how the triple helix model has been applied in different contexts to promote economic development through collaboration between public and private institutions.

1. The triple helix:

2. What a triple helix is
A new model of innovation in
innovation:
An innovative system in
which public and private
institutions are strictly
connected in order to
promote an optimised joint
venture.

6. The Research Triangle Park
In the 50s leaders of the North Carolina's major research universities,
businesses and government came together to create
The Research Triangle Park (RTP)
Largest science park in United
States = 7,000 acres

7. Research Triangle Region Park
RTP is home to some of the most innovative and
cutting-edge companies in the world
www.rtp.org
RTP largest employers:
1. IBM Corporation 5,000
2. Cisco System 4,900
3. GlaxoSmithKline 4,300
Source Research Triangle Foundation
170+ companies

8. Clusters of Innovation
Advanced medical care
Agricultural biotechnology
Analytical instrumentation
Biological agents & infectious diseases
Clean/green technologies
Defense technologies
Informatics
Interactive gaming and e-learning
Nanoscale technologies
Pervasive computing
Pharmaceuticals

The Research Triangle Park

9. Research Triangle Region Park
RTP Triple Helix created
• N.C. Board of Sciences and Technology, the first of its kind in
the nation
• RTI International, one of the world's leading independent,
nonprofit research and development organizations
• N.C. Biotechnology Center, transformed the region into one of
the three top biotechnology regions in the nation
• Biofuels Center of North Carolina, gives to the rural areas vast
new markets for their agricultural products and a burgeoning new
industry for their workers
• NCSU Nanofabrication Facility, melting pot for a community of
top-notch researchers from academia, government labs and
industry representing a variety of disciplines

10. Goal:
100,000 net new jobs
Research Triangle Region Park
Taxol, AZT, 3D ultrasound technology
and Ctrl+Alt+Delete were born in RTP

11. The Research Triangle Park
governments that
structure intellectual
property, regulatory
and tax systems to
enable new companies
and industries to thrive
entrepreneurs and
investors who turn
discoveries into
products and
companies
researchers
who
continuously
innovate
Regional collaboration planted many years ago have grown
into a dense network
Single vision and goal:
support businesses and make it easy for them to operate and grow

12. Research Triangle Region Park
To support businesses in RTP
Supportive government:
• investments in education, workforce development,
infrastructure and technology
• benefit from financial assistance programs
• a right-to-work labor environment
Supportive colleges:
• free customized training programs
Supportive companies:
• knowledgeable vendors

13. “And now, at age 50, our triple helix model has taken up gaming. A
range of new tax credits and financial incentives are growing our
interactive gaming and e-learning cluster, already the East Coast
hub for this multi-billion emerging industry, and building the largest
gaming engine center in the nation.”

21. Evers, 2008: Knowledge hub is “a local innovation
systems that are nodes in networks of knowledge
production and knowledge sharing… it fulfils three
major functions: to generate knowledge, to transfer
knowledge to sites of application; and to transmit
knowledge to other people through education and
training ”.
