Policies, Processes and Practices for Performance of Innovation Ecosystems (P4IE) 2022

P4IE Conference - Measuring Metrics that Matter

We are organizing the second “Policies, Processes and Practices for Performance of Innovation Ecosystems” (P4IE) international conference on 9-10-11 May 2022 at the Hilton Garden Inn Downtown Ottawa with the collaboration of Statistics Canada (StatCan). The event will be preceded by one-day pre-conference that will offer the opportunity for the participants to learn more about and gain hands-on experience on new databases, tools and methods to measure the performance of innovation indicators.

The conference will bring together graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, academic and non-academic researchers, practitioners, policy- and decision-makers to share knowledge about the technologies, practices, processes and policies currently in place, and on their impact on innovation ecosystems, as well as initiate a dialogue about how to best design those foreseen for the future

The overarching goal of the conference is to explore ways to strengthen Canada’s innovation through innovation ecosystems.
