At the Perm Economic Forum on April 21-24, the Russia Innovation Collaborative (RIC) presented an overview of their “Perm Innovation Roadmap,” an extensive report that provides an in-depth analysis of the current innovation ecosystem of the Perm city in Russia and a methodology for building on its strengths and improving its weaknesses. RIC Founding Partner Cynthia Bouthot hosted a seminar that explained RIC’s methodology and six-phase model approach to stimulating innovation and introduced a framework design to build economic activity in the Perm Krai region.
RIC’s innovation ecosystem model is structured in these six phases:
1. Conduct an innovation assessment to determine Perm’s global market potential
2. Develop an ecosystem map to compare the current and prospective innovation environment
3. Design an innovation action plan to maximize Perm’s potential
4. Implement the action plan
5. Motivate stakeholders through training and education programs
6. Build Perm’s market awareness
