About
The European Research Infrastructure for Science, Technology and Innovation Policy Studies () is an Open Science project that has been designed to promote a research infrastructure to advance Science Technology and Innovation studies. With , RISIS2 aims at building a data and services infrastructure to support the development of a new generation of analyses and indicators, and to transform the field of Science Technology and Innovation studies into an advanced research community.
It will do this by:
- developing an e-infrastructure that supports full virtual transnational access by researchers
- providing a vastly enlarged set of services tailored to field-specific needs (for problem-based integration of datasets, for exploring open data, and for supporting analytical capabilities of researchers)
- maintaining datasets dealing with firm innovation capacities, public research developments, research and innovation outputs and projects, and policy learning
- developing new datasets on four key issues for research and policy:
- social innovation
- non-technological innovation
- the role of Post-doctoral researchers in society
- portfolios of public funding instruments.
The current cover five critical dimensions: European Research Area dynamics, firm innovation dynamics, public sector research, research careers and a repository on research and innovation policy evaluations.
The main role of Dr Roberto Camerani, SPRU, is to work on firm-level datasets and to develop a firm register uniquely identifying, integrating and tracking over time the most innovative and high-performing businesses across Europe.
This project, funded by the European Union under Horizon2020 Research and Innovation Program, builds on RISIS1 (2014-18), which opened access to a first set of databases and services.
