A new service to monitor innovation policies hosted on CORDIS
CORDIS, the European R&D Information Service, hosts yet a new service to help policymakers and managers learn about innovative national policies and build upon successful experiences. The Trendchart web service hosts a searchable database service referencing innovation policy measures (innovation finance, company startups, intellectual property rights, technology transfer) from more than 40 countries, including accession countries. The service also provides users with key statistics and trends, list of contacts, thematic reports and news. This new service is a valuable source as a European forum for benchmarking and the exchange of 'good practices' on innovation policy.
