| Sumario: | This paper enter more deeply, into the study and analysis of problems leading to the malfunctioning of the Spanish innovation system (SIS) presenting strengths and weaknesses of this system within the theoretical framework of innovation system approach and more specifically the concept of systemic “failures”. Such failures act as a barrier that inhibits creation of virtuous circles that facilitate that the private investments R&D and impedes that the innovations and the public funds for policies in those areas obtain the best possible results. Solving the systemic failures should assure that public investments in R&D are converted in innovations relevant or useful for the productive system. Many of these failures were identified some decades ago but, in our opinion, neither Spanish politicians in charge nor the involved stakeholders take serious or strict measures to tackle the cases of inefficiency that have been detected. |
