about MISSION-ORIENTED INNOVATION<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Short-term, isolated, single stakeholder approaches are no longer sufficient to tackle systemic societal challenges. Mission-oriented innovation policies, governance, and practices support directed action toward achieving ambitious goals.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

What is mission-oriented innovation?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Missions are measurable, ambitious, and time-bound objectives that have the potential to help enable transformative change. They are declarations of intent to tackle complex societal challenges, such as climate change and health inequities, by taking a purpose-oriented, solution-driven, and market-shaping approach. The mission of achieving carbon neutrality by 2030 is an example of a mission-oriented approach to addressing climate change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With mission-oriented innovation, the public sector takes an active role in convening and coordinating actors around complex, cross-sectoral issues that cannot be solved with existing methods or by individual actors alone. Mission-oriented innovation refers to any new or improved technological, social, or organisational solution (product, process, or service) that aims to respond to one or several objectives tackling grand societal challenges (missions) and create public value to society (e.g., climate mitigation, clean oceans, sustainable economic growth, and well-being). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Supporting the development and diffusion of such innovations often requires specific policy interventions. Mission-oriented innovation policy is a coordinated package of policy and regulatory measures specifically tailored to mobilise innovation to address well-defined societal objectives in a defined timeframe. These measures can span across different stages of the innovation cycle, from research to demonstration and market deployment, mix supply-push and demand-pull instruments and cut across various policy fields, sectors, and disciplines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
