Technological Innovation System (TIS)

A Technological Innovation System (TIS) is a framework that describes how different actors—such as companies, research institutions, government agencies, and users—collaborate and interact to develop, diffuse, and adopt new technologies. It involves various components like knowledge creation, market formation, infrastructure, and regulations that support innovation. By analyzing TIS, we can understand what helps or hinders technological progress in a specific field, guiding strategies to accelerate development and adoption of new solutions. Essentially, it maps the network of relationships and resources that drive technological change within a particular industry or sector.
