Reinventing Innovation and Commercialization Policy in Ontario

Ontario firms in traded industries trail their US counterparts by 55 percent in patent creation per employee, a key measure of innovative capacity in Ontario. To improve our innovation performance, government policy needs to focus as much on the demand for innovation as on funding of R&D and the hard sciences. That is the key conclusion of Working Paper 6 - Reinventing innovation and commercialization in Ontario by the Institute for Competitiveness & Prosperity.
