Preparation of a Discussion Paper on the geopolitical and financial dimensions to science and innovation policy (2006)

The Federation of Australian Scientific and Technological Societies (FASTS) commissioned Mark Matthews of Howard Partners to prepare a Discussion Paper aimed at extending the scope of how we think about the nature and extent of the returns sought from public support for science and innovation.

The paper is entitled Managing uncertainty and risk in science, innovation and preparedness: why public policy should pay more attention to geopolitical and financial considerations.

The paper has been released via a FASTS submission to the Productivity Commission.
