Abstract
Research and technological standards vary from nation to nation. The creating, diffusing, and leveraging of intellectual capital is closely linked to a nation's innovation system and the capabilities of organizations (such as universities, governments, research institutes, and ventures) within the system (Freeman, 1987; Hollingsworth, 1996; Lundvall, 1992; Nelson, 1993; Casper et al., 1999). Because each system is deeply rooted in its own historical and social patterns (Freeman, 1987; Lundvall, 1992), changing one is obviously not easy. However, a radical technological breakthrough may trigger change in the whole innovation system
