摘要

The Government of Indonesia has a new initiative to establish and develop 100 Science and Techno Parks (STPs) within the next five years starting 2015. The development of STP is as a policy instrument to revitalize local economic development utilizing science, technology, and innovation, moving from natural resources driven economy to innovation driven economy. BPPT (The Agency for the Assessment and Application of Technology), a non ministerial government Agency of Indonesia, has been mandated to facilitate the development of 8 out of 100 STPs. In planning and developing STPs, BPPT uses the innovation system strengthening framework consisting of 5 strategic initiatives: innovation ecosystem, industrial cluster, innovative capacity, technopreneurship, and green technology for people basic need. This presentation will discuss the implementation of this framework and the lessons learned, with a case study of the Pelalawan Technopolis in the Province of Riau, Indonesia.
