| description |
Innovation is often touted as a key
component in unleashing private sector growth and the
dynamism necessary for solving the Middle East and North
Africa (MENA) region's employment challenges. The
region's innovation strategy identifies the major
development challenges including youth unemployment, low
diversification of exports, low share of medium and high
tech exports, and the need to move from privilege to
competition. The MENA region does not perform well on
innovation and education indicators, and scores below the
world average on the knowledge index (2011). Innovation
policies should first focus on improving the business
environment, innovation finance, and skills. While
developing the innovation policy framework, it will be
important to leverage international linkages and to focus on
promoting inclusive innovation. MENA's innovation
policy agenda will be country specific and difficult to operationalize. |
