The United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (ESCAP) serves as the United Nations’ regional hub promoting cooperation among countries to achieve inclusive and sustainable development. The largest regional intergovernmental platform with 53 member States and nine associate members, ESCAP has emerged as a strong regional think-tank, offering countries sound analytical products that shed light on the evolving economic, social and environmental dynamics of the region. The Commission’s strategic focus is to deliver on the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, which it does by reinforcing and deepening regional cooperation and integration to advance connectivity, financial cooperation and market integration. ESCAP’s research and analysis, coupled with its policy advisory services, capacity-building and technical assistance to Governments, is aimed at supporting countries’ sustainable and inclusive development ambitions. 2 Establishing a Science and Technology Park: A Reference Guidebook for Policymakers in Asia and the Pacific Establishing Science and Technology Parks: A Reference Guidebook for Policymakers in Asia and the Pacific United Nations Publication Copyright © 2019 United Nations All rights reserved ST/ESCAP/2862 Reference to dollars ($) are to United States dollars unless otherwise stated.

Nussdorf Professor of Urban Research Department of City and Regional Planning School of Design Co-Director, Penn Institute for Urban Research University of Pennsylvania Contact Information: [email protected] Understanding our cities…. Understanding our world From Science Parks to Innovation Districts 2 Introduction Research and development (R&D) drives advanced economies worldwide. It is this that provides the foundation for the new knowledge, products, and processes that, in turn, become new industries, create jobs and serve as the source of economic growth. Key areas for R&D are in what is called the knowledge and technology industries (KTI) that consist of high technology manufacturing (e.g. aircraft, spacecraft, pharmaceuticals) and knowledge-intensive services (commercial business, financial and communication services). KTI, which account f or 27% of the worldwide Gross Domestic Product (GDP), are extremely important to the United States, in particular, representing 40% of the U.S. GDP. In fact, the U.S is the world’s largest KTI producer – contributing 27% of the total HT manufacturing and 32% of the KI services.1 In order to grow and maintain these positions, the United States, like its peers in Europe and Asia who are also large contributors, has built an extensive R&D infrastructure composed of three strong players: the private sector, the public sector and universities. In terms of expenditures and numbers of employees, the private sector dominates the R&D enterprise, but the university sector, largely funded by the US government, is also an important component both directly and indirectly.

  • Bankrupt Golf Courses: an Historical Analysis And
    BANKRUPT GOLF COURSES: AN HISTORICAL ANALYSIS AND STRATEGIES FOR REPURPOSING by BLAKE JEFFREY CONANT (Under the Direction of Ron Sawhill) ABSTRACT More than 800 golf courses have closed since 2003 and approximately 1,000 to 2,500 are projected to close in the next decade. Many of these courses are repurposed as high-end mixed-use development, high-density residential, or big-box development. The sustainable benefits the golf course once provided either diminish or leave completely. As our countryʼs 21st Century needs shift towards food, water, and energy security, bankrupt golf courses can offer repurposing opportunities to plan for those needs. The goal of golf course repurposing should be to provide similar or greater sustainable benefits as the golf course once did. Understanding how that land can be sustainably repurposed is vital for local communities, environments, and economies to thrive in the 21st Century. This thesis will offer suggestions, strategies, and solutions for repurposing bankrupt golf courses that have yet to be implemented in the United States.

Willem Hulsink1, Harry Bouwman2 e Tom Elfring3 Resumo O iniciadores de alta tecnologia não operam em um vácuo, e inovação não é uma atividade solitária. As atividades de empresas baseadas nas firmas de tecnologia da informação e comunicação (TIC) estão enraizadas em redes sócio-econômicas com outras companhias, investidores, universidades, instituições vocacionais e de localização das firmas TIC. Além disso, muitas companhias de alta tecnologia amoldam estas aglomerações em torno de áreas onde seus clientes principais ficam situados. Um modelo dinâmico previamente desenvolvido para a análise do empreendedorismo e das redes nas TICs será aplicado para fazer uma análise crítica de cinco aglomerações de TIC nos Países Baixos e Flandres ( parte do norte da Bélgica): o Corredor de Tecnologia de Louvain, Vale Lingüístico de Flandres, Alameda de Amsterdã, Vale de Dommel e Twente.

  • Regiostars Awards 2009
    RegioStars Awards 2009 Presentation of the finalists Brussels, 16th February 2009 Foreword Innovation and the application of innovative practices enable Europe’s businesses to stay ahead in a globalised economic en- vironment. This message is more relevant than ever. Innovating regions and the good practice they generate and share are key to improving Europe’s competitiveness, to increasing growth and promoting jobs. It is in this context that we organise RegioStars, DG Regional Policy’s annual awards for innovative projects supported through EU Cohesion Policy. These awards aim to identify and publicise the good regional innovative projects, across different categories, in order to promote the exchange of good practices across Europe. RegioStars 2009 has seen applications from many project promoters and regions from 18 RegioStars Awards EU Member States and third country partners in Interreg programmes. This year’s award categories were; “Research, Technological Development and Innovation”, “Adaptation to or mitigation of climate change” and “Radio or television spot or programme that highlights the contribution of Cohesion Policy”. 20 applications in the two categories linked to policy themes were short listed as finalists by the Jury and this booklet contains summary descriptions of these projects. These can also be accessed on the Inforegio website (http://ec.europa.eu/in- 2009 foregio). RegioStars is part of the Regions for Economic Change initiative, which has amongst its objectives the sharing of good practice. Indeed it is essential that we work together, share our experiences and learn from them. RegioStars is a perfect example of how regions, no matter what their size or location, can learn from each other.
