OECD-TIP WORK ON
KNOWLEDGE TRANSFER
AND CO-CREATION
Digital innovation often requires
• interdisciplinary teams (e.g. data analysts & mechanical engineers in the automotive industry)
• complementary assets from university & industry(human capital, finance, infrastructures, etc.)
distance)
Collaboration is critical in the digital age
Digital technologies also offer new opportunities for co-creation (e.g. digital platforms for collaborations at a distance)
OECD TIP Working Party has strong expertise
on knowledge transfer policies & impacts
The OECD Working Party on Innovation and Technology Policy (TIP) investigates & provides policy advice on a range of innovation policy domains to OECD countries & beyond
Community of experts and policy practitioners
The TIP community is open to interested
experts and practitioners
Case study contributions from Italy in 2 recent projects:
Collaborative research
Contract research
Academic consultancy
IP transactions
Academic spin-offs
Labour mobility
Channels for knowledge transfer
Direct channels Indirect channels
Publication of research results in scientific journals
Conferencing & networking
Facility sharing
Continuing education
Universities collaborate more with
industry over time
Patents jointly filed by public research institutions & industry have grown faster than university-owned applications between 1992 and 2014

New OECD-TIP work on co-creation
(2019-20)
1. What is knowledge co-creation?
2. How can policy better support co-creation?
What is distinctive of co-
creation? How does it differ
from past practices of science-
industry knowledge transfer?
How should policy adapt to
new forms of co-creation?
What is the policy practice
across OECD countries?
How can engagement of civil
society enhance socio-economic
contributions of co-creation?
How can policy leverage the
potential of digital technologies
for co-creation?
