Abstract
Well-structured regional policies could have a huge impact on the dynamics of innovation generation, that are crucial for achieving national innovation policy objectives. However, a problem in implementing original policies on innova tion at the local level is how to operate in a conservative environment. The paper presents one case-study of an incubator developed in UK, the SetSquared partnership, an original model w ith respect to mentoring, fundraising and relationship with the local economy. This case show s how a correct policy implementation could break the locked-in practices towards a lock- out solution, with a new architecture of economic interactions in a regional innovation syst em.
