Through SYNTHESiST, my work to enrich the conversation on innovation systems and change management in emerging markets like the Philippines gets me to meet interesting people – scholars who move their worlds with knowledge work. In two weeks, I will attend my first GLOBELICS, the 8th Global Network for Economics of Learning, Innovation, and Competence [...]

In China, they have a saying, “one cannot step into the same river twice.” Lu Qiwen first wrote about the China brand of national innovation systems, Indigenous Innovation, in China’s Leap into the Information Age: Innovation and Organization in the Computer Industry (Oxford, 2000). It seems, that the mode of national innovation system as described [...]

Craig Ventner, who first mapped the human genome, achieved another first. His research team at the J. Craig Ventner Institute (JCVI) assembled the first self-replicating synthetic bacterial cell. The discovery is path-breaking as it can lead to new products like “advanced biofuels, clean water technology, and new vaccines.” Other than the products, the experimental and [...]

This hardy Filipino-fabricated machine is cause for cheer I could hardly contain my excitement at seeing a Filipino-fabricated rotary filler being set up yesterday – a working product from the minuscule Philippine machinery industry is on the ground before me! YAY! as my young friends shout. And LOL with that. Fighting against economic policies like [...]

Hypothesis on systems of innovation for emerging markets from Denmark, Israel and New Zealand Filipinos, in general, are America-centered especially in learning about new things. In one sense, this is correct as America leads the world in many technologies. In another, it is not appropriate because there can be no bigger disparities than between America [...]

Let us stop flagellating ourselves with negative news From 2005, Goldman Sachs identified the Philippines as one of eleven countries “that could potentially have a BRIC-like impact in rivalling the G7.” More recently, in September 2009, the FTSE Global Equity Index Series classified the Philippines as one of seventeen secondary emerging countries with regards to [...]

Catching up and leapfrogging is hard; Improving winner industries in captured growth markets with enabler technologies easier Each country, because of its level of development, will have its own bounded innovation ecosystem that is intertwined with that of the rest of the world. The Philippines, as typical of emerging markets, does not lead in any [...]

Adapting Professor Bengt Ake Lundvall’s ideas for the Philippines Productivity is the true source of wealth for any nation, in the final analysis. And sustaining productivity requires for that nation to innovate continuously on its productivity base. Nations follow different strategies for innovation. The Philippines has survived through a strategy of trading services – by [...]

Intensive learning facilitated the technological catching up process of the East Asian NIEs like South Korea and Taiwan in the 1980′s, said Professor Patarapong in his paper at ASIALICS 2009 (Posts 80, 81,82, 86 and 87). The subject fascinates. For me, the hunt goes on for innovation models to emulate so I can enrich the [...]

I submitted a draft proposal to input innovation into a framework being put together for mentoring and coaching out-of-school youth (OSY) on entrepreneurship at the APEC seminar on Friday, August 28. I focused on competence-building techniques as inputs into learning-by-doing to be the best way to increase the OSY’s chances of success. The seminar was [...]

Reading Chris Anderson’s book, FREE, reinforces my belief that, at bottom, nothing is really new about business management and the language of business in the Internet age. Entrepreneurial change agents doing creative deal-making that satisfy all parties is still key! In the past, these change agents, as emperors, tycoons and demagogues, became wealthy and powerful [...]
