9. Actors in NIS • Governments (local,regional,national,international)-setting policy directions • Bridging institutions-intermediaries between governments and research performers. • Private enterprises & research institutes they finance • Universities and institutions-provide key knowledge and skills. • Other public and private organizations • (labs,TTOs,patent offices etc.)

10. NIS Linkages: Policy Formulation • Objective1-foster scientific research in Universities and scientific institutions. • Objective2-promote interaction between private and public institutions. • Objective3-Leverage technologies such as IT, Biotechnology etc. • Objective4-strengthen enabling mechanisms relating to technology development and absorption. • Objective5-promote international S&T cooperation.

11. NIS linkages: Strategy • Strategy1(Policyobjective1)-estb of research institute, Setting up world class R&D centers. • Strategy2(Policyobjective2)-synergy between industry &scientific research, increased R&D investments by industry. • Strategy3(Policyobjective3)-capacity buiding,global competitiveness. • Strategy4(Policyobjective4)-Technology transfer and diffusion. • Strategy5(Policyobjective5)-MOUs,collaboration,foreign R&D centers.
