Foregrounding novel policy directions and approaches, such as mission-oriented policies, systemic innovation tools and agile governance, this Handbook sets a transformative agenda for future research and practice.This volume is an essential resource for scholars and students in the fields of innovation studies, economics, political science, and environmental and sustainability studies.
