“…It is widely accepted that innovation is the main driving force of economic growth and investment in science and technology can act as a push factor to improve competitiveness [1,2,3] On the other hand, the introduction of innovations can produce changes in society lifestyles [4], and this type of transformations are especially relevant for countries and regions whose economies are largely based on traditional sectors that rely on rich endowments of natural resources [5].…”

“…Framework conditions, innovation activities, investments, and impacts are considered within the scope of the EIS. Recently, Paredes-Frigolett et al (2021) suggested a multi-criteria framework to determine the strategy of innovation systems. They aimed to address shortcomings of mainstream empirical methodologies.…”

“…To cope with this problem encountered frequently, a set of MCDM techniques with some ranking combination methods like the Borda rule may be applied for obtaining an overall ranking. This useful approach has earlier been handled in various studies like smart cities (Mokarrari and Torabi, 2021), battery electric vehicles (Ecer, 2021), innovation systems (Paredes-Frigolett et al, 2021), cryptocurrencies , and research and technology organizations (Varmazyar et al, 2016).…”

Innovation can be the greatest hope of overcoming economic challenges. This paper aims to evaluate countries concerning their innovation performances. We introduce an innovation performance evaluation methodology by considering objective factors and applying seven reliable MCDM methods: MEREC, CODAS, MABAC, MARCOS, CoCoSo, WASPAS, and MAIRCA. MEREC calculates the relative weights of indicators considered, while the other techniques decide the ranking order of G7 countries. The Borda rule is then employed to gain an aggregated ranking order. “Business sophistication” is the most critical indicator, whereas the US has the best position regarding the overall ranking. Sensitivity control is as well conducted.

“…This academic landscape is still rare. Some attempts were made by using agent-based and similar models, but they do not provide a full-fledged overview and have several limits and restrictions concerning data and the integration into the decision-making process (Zhangqi et al, 2021;Paredes-Frigolett et al, 2021). On the other hand, foresight as a theoretical and empirical instrument has been widely used to serve very similar Engineering Management in Production and Services goals.…”

The paper aims to develop and apply a methodological approach that could help to reveal incentives and future strategies of key National Innovation System (NIS) players considering the influence of global social, economic, scientific, technological and ecological trends. To fulfil this aim, a blended foresight methodology was applied, grounded on the platform of economic and classic foresight theory and considering four possible directions for using foresight methods: investigating and building a common vision; supporting evidence-based decisions; promoting communication and participation; inducing transformation and integration into the decision-making process. The main results and findings of the research include a list of 19 global trends, defined from literature analysis and the author’s expert knowledge, a short description of their influence on key NIS players, including society, business, infrastructure and institutions, science, education and government; and mapping more than 35 different foresight methods that could be used for revealing incentives and future strategies of key NIS players. The article’s theoretical contribution to economic theory consists of several parts. First, a NIS conception is examined through the prism of global trends and a dynamic aspect, whereas it is mostly investigated from statistical and static perspectives. Second, applying foresight as an instrument for researching NIS as a system is a developing academic area with some theoretical gaps, considered in this article by designing a conceptional research framework. Third, blending different foresight methods is always a craft, and the approach applied in this article contributes to it. Finally, the article presents several important trends which will appear in NIS and its key players’ transformation in the nearest 5–10 years. From practical implications, this article could be useful for proactive policymakers in the field of science, technology and innovation policy at national and regional levels for designing and providing measures for supporting innovation systems effectively. Foresight practitioners and experts are offered useful, practical ideas of different foresight methods and their possible combinations for everyday activities.
