In the tri-state region, key institutional players, whether in the universities or the private sector, should seek to identify and maximise the role of innovation brokers to enhance innovation capacity in priority business clusters region-wide. There are significant variations in the nature of technologies or innovations, product lifecycles, skills gaps and other factors that are cluster specific. Successful examples from other OECD countries, such as the 0resund region (Box 3.4) which builds around a range of innovation platforms, can serve as example.
