<strong>Research</strong> <strong>and</strong> Development ‐ to enhance national competitiveness <strong>and</strong><br />
increase security in the regional <strong>and</strong> global markets<br />
Technology Transfer ‐ to promote IP licensing <strong>and</strong> commercialization of<br />
research outputs <strong>and</strong> to boost R&D investment in the private sectors<br />
Human Resources Development ‐ to develop science <strong>and</strong> technology skills<br />
necessary (via collaboration <strong>and</strong> mobility) for the transformation toward a<br />
more knowledge‐intensive <strong>and</strong> creative economy<br />
Infrastructure Development ‐ to establish state‐of‐the‐arts facility <strong>and</strong><br />
equipment accessible by <strong>and</strong> shared with academics, private sectors <strong>and</strong><br />
government agencies.<br />

What we mean by “innovation cluster”<br />
• Grouping of innovative firms in a particular industrial/technology sector,<br />
<strong>NSTDA</strong> labs <strong>and</strong> researchers that have linkages with this particular sector,<br />
<strong>and</strong> related <strong>NSTDA</strong> alliance (e.g. research institutes <strong>and</strong> universities)<br />
• Intensive interactions <strong>and</strong> sharing of facilities,<br />
as well as exchange of knowledge <strong>and</strong> expertise among these key players<br />
• Agglomeration <strong>and</strong> proximity of these key players should generate benefits<br />
to innovation cluster members in terms of<br />
• <strong>Research</strong> collaboration <strong>and</strong>/or joint investment in R&D<br />
• Knowledge <strong>and</strong> technology transfer<br />
• Generation of new technology‐based firms, or innovative business<br />
• Human resource development<br />
• High potential economic impacts (…..% GDP)<br />
