A tudásalapú társadalom és gazdaság kutatás-fejlesztési és innovációs súlypontjai Magyarországon
R & D and innovation hubs of the knowledge-based society and economy in Hungary

Summary/Abstract: The sharpened competition in the context of globalization presents challenges which have to be faced by all nations interested in developing a knowledge-driven economy. The Hungarian society and economy have to change over to a new trajectory of development, based on innovation and knowledge. In international comparison, the innovation achievement of Hungary is somewhere in the middle range in the EU, among those countries trying to catch up with „older” member states. In Hungary, a comprehensive reform of the system of innovation commenced in 2003. The government’s R&D and innovation strategy, presently being under wide-scale discussions, explicitly aims at enhancing the country’s competitiveness. The national innovation system is, however, unevenly developed in different regions of the country, therefore special attention has to be given in the future to promoting the innovation capabilities of various regions lagging behind.
