摘要:This Topical Collection strives to approach the role of Foresight as innovation enabler from two perspectives: that of business, and that of public research policy. Both points of view have received increasing attention in the literature, recently. For example in the special issues of Foresight or Technological Forecasting and Social Change on Strategic Foresight [1, 2], in the European Planning Studies journal or in books, such as What Works: Case Studies in the Practice of Foresight [3], Adaptive Governance for a Changing World [4] or The Evolution of Strategic Foresight: Navigating Public Policy Making [5]; to name just a few.
