Summary/Abstract: The paper investigates the national innovation system and divergences in the prioritisation of key measures of the national institutional framework linked to the policy mix supply side. Two acting populations from the Republic of Croatia were selected for this process: on one side, 33 governmental representatives of the institutional framework (IF) ecosystem, and the "opposite side" of 93 owners or CEOs of firms as policy targets or beneficiaries. The produced results were additionally verified through 18 semi-structured interviews with government officials as representatives of the IF. The results confirm the existence of divergences in the perception of importance and relevance of the policy measures between the two populations.
