“…The second column provides further detail and interpretation of the functions, to build the linkage to examples of potential diplomacy actions in the third column. This interpretation is based on further details provided by Hekkert and his co-authors, and on Miremadi's analysis [7]. Table 1 and the given examples of issues for potential diplomacy actions show that this analytical perspective with its detailing of the functions of innovation systems helps to develop a more systematic approach to the identification and mapping of innovation diplomacy actions.…”

“…Following a few authors [7,37] who have tried to overcome this problem, it is here proposed to use the Bfunctions of innovation systems^approach [38] for a future-oriented analysis of innovation diplomacy. Hekkert et al say there is a set of key processes that need to take place for an innovation system to develop.…”

Exploring the future of innovation diplomacy

Science diplomacy links the two policy domains of foreign affairs and science policy. Competitive thinking and the ways in which this affects global challenges are now putting the globalisation trends in science, technology and innovation under pressure. Rising populism adds to the growth of de-globalisation politics. In an increasingly knowledge driven world this leads to changes in the roles of diplomats. Their focus has already shifted from relatively neutral scientific collaborations to the technology and innovation interests of their home-countries. What are likely future developments of the field of science, technology and innovation diplomacy? The paper explores the future roles and development of innovation diplomacy as the outcome of interactions between the evolving characteristics of science, technology and innovation on the one hand and of international relations and foreign policies on the other. It is explorative, because there is no research tradition on which it can build and requires bringing together insights from several disciplines in new combinations. Trends in the fields of science, technology and innovation and in the field of international relations (including changes in the mechanisms and institutions for global governance) will be discussed. Together these drivers provide a framework through which potential futures of innovation diplomacy can be explored.

“…Innovation diplomacy involves the use of diplomacy to further innovation for a country, as well as leveraging innovation to improve the relations among countries in bi-, multi-, or transnational settings (Miremadi, 2016). Innovation diplomacy includes supporting partnerships with industry, academic, and nongovernmental organizations; supporting open innovation and collaboration; shaping intellectual property rights, ethical regulation, and use of technology; structuring global value chains; as well as developing, deploying, and scaling innovative solutions to global problems (Leijten, 2017).…”

Background: Brain health diplomacy aims to influence the global policy environment for brain health (i.e. dementia, depression, and other mind/brain disorders) and bridges the disciplines of global brain health, international affairs, management, law, and economics. Determinants of brain health include educational attainment, diet, access to health care, physical activity, social support, and environmental exposures, as well as chronic brain disorders and treatment. Global challenges associated with these determinants include large-scale conflicts and consequent mass migration, chemical contaminants, air quality, socioeconomic status, climate change, and global population aging. Given the rapidly advancing technological innovations impacting brain health, it is paramount to optimize the benefits and mitigate the drawbacks of such technologies. Objective: We propose a working model of Brain health INnovation Diplomacy (BIND). Methods: We prepared a selective review using literature searches of studies pertaining to brain health technological innovation and diplomacy. Results: BIND aims to improve global brain health outcomes by leveraging technological innovation, entrepreneurship, and innovation diplomacy. It acknowledges the key role that technology, entrepreneurship, and digitization play and will increasingly play in the future of brain health for individuals and societies alike. It strengthens the positive role of novel solutions, recognizes and works to manage both real and potential risks of digital platforms. It is recognition of the political, ethical, cultural, and economic influences that brain health technological innovation and entrepreneurship can have. Conclusions: By creating a framework for BIND, we can use this to ensure a systematic model for the use of technology to optimize brain health.
