High-Tech Strategy for Germany
Emerging technologies are the basis for new products, processes and services which can contribute to mastering current social challenges. Without them, innovation would be unthinkable today. Our country's economic future depends on how effectively we use the opportunities linked to key technologies.
The Federal Government wants to further strengthen Germany's top position in the field of technology within the framework of its High-Tech Strategy.

“The tracks of international research on innovation demonstrate that the technology-oriented paradigm – shaped by the industrial society – does not cover the broad range of innovations indispensable in the transition from an industrial to a knowledge and services-based society: Such fundamental societal changes require the inclusion of social innovations in a paradigm shift of the innovation system.”

Social Innovation will play an important role in the Europe 2020 strategy
"Creativity and innovation in general and social innovation in particular are essential factors for fostering sustainable growth, securing jobs and increasing competitive abilities, especially in the midst of the economic and financial markets crisis."

Basic assumption
The transition from an industrial to a knowledge and services-based society corresponds with a paradigm shift of the innovation system.
This paradigm shift also implies an increasing importance of social innovation as compared to technological innovation.

7
Main characteristic
This New Innovation Paradigm – as described by the experts of the OECD Study “New Nature of Innovation” – is essentially characterised by the opening of the innovation process to society.
Alongside companies, universities and research institutes, citizens and customers, NGOs and social movements become relevant actors within the innovation process.

Social Innovation moves from the margins to the mainstream
At the start of 2009 President Obama announced the establishment of a new “Office for Social Innovation at the White House“ and allocated USD 50million to a fund for social innovation.The Fund will focus on priority policy areas, including education, health care, and economic opportunity.

„Social innovations are innovations that are social in both their ends and their means.
Specially we define social innovation as new ideas (products, services and models) that simultaneously meet social needs (more effectively than alternatives) and create new social relationsships or collaborations.
They are innovations that are not only good for society but also enhance society‘ s capacity to act.“
Bepa report 2010, 9

state action: the introduction of social security and national insurance
business world: the advent of team work, knowledge management or new social services

Overall scientific advancement required to meet expectations and developments in social innovation practices Elaboration on the particular features of the concept and clarification of
definitions Embedding the concept of social innovation in a comprehensive theory of
innovation Development of coherent methodologies to identify and measure social
innovations
Vienna Declaration: The most relevant topics in social innovation research
Challenge 1: We have to develop a clear concept of social innovation
Howaldt/Bogotà 2012
Sozialforschungsstelle DortmundCentral Scientific Institute
22
Challenge 2: „Redraw the boundaries”
“The world needs more social innovation - and so all who aspire to solve the world’s most vexing problems - entrepreneurs, leaders, managers, activists, and change agents - regardless of whether they come from the world of business, government, or nonprofits, must shed old patterns of isolation, paternalism, and antagonism and strive to understand, embrace, and leverage cross-sector dynamics to find new ways of creating social value.”
(Phills et al. 2008)
Howaldt/Bogotà 2012

23
Combine the potential of social innovation in the social economy, civil society, business firms and the state (Multi-level governance)
Promote alliances between universities, companies and the state around social innovation
Opening the process of innovation to society including all stakeholders in the development and diffusion of innovation
Empowering people: Include citizens, clients, social movements, communities in the process of social innovation
Innovation „bottom up“: learning from experiences of innovation research and business and public service innovation
Ameliorate the conditions of participation and self-management in social innovations aimed at overcoming poverty and pauperisation

Challenge 3: Networks as Success Factor for Social Innovation
Networks can be described as one of the most important features of the new innovation paradigm, a result of a profound transformation of the innovation process.

Social Innovators – Mohammad Yunus
“Most social businesses are likely to originate with one person, or perhaps with a small group of people - friends, work colleagues, or people with a shared interest in a particular social problem. Within such a small group, you may not have all the expertise, experience, ideas and resources needed to make your social business idea into a reality. Don’t let that stop you! Look around for others you can partner with.”

Challenge 4: New ways of diffusion and scaling up of social innovation
One critical question is “whether and how networks can help facilitate innovations to bridge the seemingly insurmountable chasms that separate local solutions from broad system transformation: that is, how they help innovations to ’cross scales’”.
(Moore and Westley, 2011)
Howaldt/Bogotà 2012
Sozialforschungsstelle DortmundCentral Scientific Institute
28
Organise learning processes between social economy, civil society, business firms and the state
Share knowledge and promising practices Use opportunities of social media for enabling large scale and
systemic social innovations Develop a Knowledge Bank for social innovation Identify venture capital for social entrepreneurs
Howaldt/Bogotà 2012
Sozialforschungsstelle DortmundCentral Scientific Institute
29
Challenge 5: Social Innovation must become a priority on the political agenda
•Multi-level governance and receptivity of governments to social innovations •Incentives from government to promote social innovation•More resources (incl. research programmes) to foster/promote social innovation•Establish a multi-national evidence base of promising practices for inclusion and integration

“The most urgent and important innovations in the 21st century will take place in the social field. This opens up the necessity as well as possibilities for Social Sciences and Humanities to find new roles and relevance by generating knowledge applicable to new dynamics and structures of contemporary and future societies.”
