Purpose
The aim of the Globelics Academy PhD-School
is to support the training of Ph.D. students from different
parts of the world and who are writing theses on issues related
with innovation and economic development. The Academy brings
together frontier researchers in innovation with Ph.D. students
from developing countries in order to inspire and qualify their
work as well as in order to help them to join high-quality research
networks in their field of research.
Previously Globelics Academy has taken place four times in Lisbon,
Portugal (from 2004 to 2007) and will now take turns with Tampere,
Finland so that in 2008 and 2010 the Academy will be organized
in Tampere by TaSTI, University of Tampere.The Academy will
be organized around three kinds of activities. First, lectures
on the most recent developments in innovation studies will be
presented. Second, round table discussions and group work on
particular issues related to innovation in developing countries
are planned. Third, the students are expected to make presentations
of their own research.
The Academy originates from and is connected to the world-wide
research network Globelics
that brings together scholars working on National Systems of
Innovation. In Lisbon Academy is jointly organized by the Center
for Innovation, Technology and Policy Research, IN+, at
Instituto Superior Técnico (IST), Technical University of Lisbon
