Eu-SPRI ECC (Early Career Researcher) Conference
“Sowing the seeds of the future: The financing of tomorrow’s innovations”
Bergamo, Italy, 24-26 June 2015
Science, technology and innovation (STI) are crucial elements of economic development and growth. They undoubtedly had a key role in the past, but their significance is going to dramatically increase in the next future. As a matter of fact, these days, from different ankles and perspectives, public opinion points to the discovery and development of new technologies as “the main solution” to many of the challenges that the whole world faces ahead. All these decisions, strategies and investments, might be supported by research and innovation policies, as well as a comprehensive approach in financing STI activities, that have to be put in place in economic and institutional contexts, which are fairly more complex than what occurred to be in the past. The Early Career Research Conference “Sowing the seeds of future: The financing of tomorrow innovations” intends to increase our understanding on the topic of “financing STI activities”, with special emphasis on the most suitable policy tools and their most appropriate governance mechanisms to alleviate in the future the existing financing barriers towards STI activities. In particular we aim at collecting both empirical and theoretical contributions that provide new insights on the below reported topics, building on the available evidence on the interrelationships between different public and private stakeholders interacting in the complex STI landscape. Papers that embrace different approaches/levels of analysis and adopt an international perspective are especially welcomed. Here follows a potential list of streams, by way of example:
- Policies for the financing of breakthrough innovations.
- Policies for achieving sustainable innovations in ‘grand social challenges’ in the areas of health, energy
and environmental issues.
- Design and governance of policy schemes for easing financing of STI activities, including public-
private collaboration arrangements in the equity and credit market.
- Interdependencies between governments’ research policies and other public policies for the financing
of STI activities.
- Financial markets, bank regulation and the provision of finance for R&D intensive firms.
- Financial markets conditions and incentives for entrepreneurship.
- Raising external capital for high-tech entrepreneurship: policy issues.
- Crowdfunding: opportunities, challenges and critical factors.
- Crowdfunding, venture capital and bank debt: complements or substitutes?
- Venture capital, innovation and high-tech start-ups performance.
4
- Innovation at a global scale: governance mechanisms across different actors.
- Innovative policy tools to support the provision of finance for innovative firms and high-tech start-
ups.
- Best practices in the management and governance of public policies for the financing of high-tech
entrepreneurship and innovative firms.
- Policies for the financial support of technology transfer.
- University-Venture capital and the financing of academic start-ups.
- Financial and growth strategies of innovative firms and high-tech start-ups.
- Initial public offerings and Mergers & Acquisitions of innovative and high-tech entrepreneurial firms.
- The effects of the financial crisis on STI activities.
- Innovative policy tools to finance Science and Technology.
- Macro perspectives on financial markets, innovation, high-tech entrepreneurship and economic
growth.
University of Bergamo
The University of Bergamo (http://www.unibg.it/) is an Italian State University with about 16,000 students (undergraduates and graduates), and more than 300 PhD students. The number of students is increasing each year, with a 7% growth rate per year between 2001 and 2011. A staff of 656 members (331 professors & researchers, 95 assisting academic staff, 230 administrative and technical staff) provides a dynamic scientific and teaching environment open to innovations. The 7 Departments and the Research centers of the University of Bergamo are strictly intertwined in the town life. They are grouped in three campuses located in three different areas:
Campus of Economics and Law: in the City of Bergamo, at walking distance from the train station
Campus of Humanities: in the Mediaeval Upper town Campus of Engineering: in Dalmine, the industrial outskirts of Bergamo, inside the science park
"Kilometro Rosso"
EuSPRI
The “European Forum for Studies of Policies for Research and Innovation” (Eu-SPRI Forum) aims to strengthen the vibrant but dispersed interdisciplinary community of researchers focusing on interdisciplinary dimensions related to policy and governance in the field of knowledge creation and innovation. The Eu-SPRI Forum was founded in Paris in June 2010 and has presently 15 member institutions (http://www.euspri-forum.eu/about_us/). Policies for research and innovation are a centrepiece of the current global ‘knowledge and innovation society’. However, the design and implementation of such policies is not a simple and straightforward business. Studies of Policies for Research and Innovation (SPRI) is a growing research field since the 1960s, evolving at the encounter of economics, political science, sociology, Science and Technology Studies (STS), business administration, geography and history. The Eu-SPRI Forum collaborates with non-European expert networks in the field of science, research, technology and innovation policy studies, such as the “Science, Technology and Innovation Policy Research Network of the Americas (STIPA)”.

Getting around
The city of Bergamo
Bergamo is located in Lombardia, a region in Northern Italy with more than 10 millions inhabitants and one of the regions with the highest GDP pro capita in Europe. With a history older than the foundation of Rome, Bergamo grew as a key town in Mediaeval times and is now a bridge between Western and Eastern Europe: its airport is the Southern Europe hub for Ryanair and other low cost airlines, turning over 9 million passengers in 2012.
General information on transport
Bergamo is divided into two parts: the Città alta (upper town), the old city on the hills surrounded by ancient walls where the forum venue is located and the Città bassa (lower town) in the valley underneath where the hotels and main transport stations and airports are located. The city is quite small, and many of the sights can be seen on foot. However, walking from the città bassa up to the città alta can be quite tiring because of the steep and winding streets, but there is a funicular that links the two parts of the city. Tickets can be purchased on the funicular and are valid for 75 minutes. They can be used to travel on the network, including the funicular to San Vigilio.
The Bergamo Card includes travel on the airport bus and unlimited travel on ATB buses, trams and funicular railways, free entry to some of the city’s museums, discounts on entry to events and temporary exhibitions as well as discounts on food and shopping. There are three types of card available: validity 24h at 10 €; 48h at 15 € and 72h at 20 €.
ATB (Bergamo’s public transport company) runs the urban bus services and funicular railway between lower and upper Bergamo and between upper Bergamo and San Vigilio. The no. 1 bus starts at the railway station and travels to upper Bergamo. The funicular railway can also be used to reach upper Bergamo. The journey only takes five minutes.
Visitors wishing to reach the top of San Viglio hill can use the panoramic funicular which begins near San Alessandro gate (just outside colle Aperto).
