We live in a rapidly changing world. Firstly, emerging and developing countries＇ research and innovation capabilities are increasing rapidly. China is the most impressive example, having dramatically increased its expenditure on research and development （R＆D） and its human resources for science and technology. As a result, China＇ s share of global knowledge resources has grown dramatically in the past 30 years. Secondly, the nature of innovation is changing. Innovation used to be very much defined and dominated by large companies in Europe, North America and Japan, characterized by a strongly science driven and linear process in which knowledge was generated in academia and then commercialized by industry.
