Converging institutions. Shaping the relationships between nanotechnologies, economy and society
Monday 22 January 2007, by Ott Ingrid, Papilloud Christian
This paper develops the concept of converging institutions and applies it to nanotechnologies. Starting point are economic and sociological perspectives. We focus on the entire innovation process of nanotechnologies beginning with research and development over diffusion via downstream sectors until implementation in final goods. The concept is applied to the nano–cluster in the metropolitan region of Grenoble and a possible converging institution is identified.
