Austrian EU Council Conference on 5-6 November 2018

Research and Innovation (R&I) policy is more than ever charged with demonstrating societal impact. If the new impact agenda of R&I policy is taken seriously, than this has several implications for policy design, implementation and evaluation.

This largest European R&I policy evaluation conference is devoted to the challenge of generating, understanding and assessing societal impact through R&I policy. It discusses new rationales and new demands for R&I policy in service of society, reflects challenges in R&I policy-making triggered by these rationales and demands, and scrutinises what is expected and delivered from different policy intelligence approaches, in particular impact assessment and evaluation.

A call for extended abstracts and/or posters has been launched. Deadline is 15 May 2018!

The conference is organised by

• Austrian Platform for Research and Technology Policy Evaluation
• Manchester Institute of Innovation Research
• IFRIS – Institut Francilien Recherche, Innovation et Société, Paris

on behalf of the Austrian Federal Ministry of Transport, Innovation and Technology.
