    Quantitative analysis was conducted to estimate the effect of organizational forms (concentrated R&D, vertical collaboration, horizontal collaboration, and industry-academia collaboration) on the results of national R&D consortia by using NEDO follow-up surveys. The following conclusions were obtained by analysis which includes the formation process of R&D each organization form for the material field and the life-science field; (i) downstream vertical collaboration was found to have positive effects on practical application and it is important to match position and motivation among collaborating firms for improving vertical collaboration (ii) horizontal collaboration has negative effects on practical application (iii) concentrated R&D and industry-academia collaboration have no direct effect on practical application and firms with week technology in the material fields and with low social cognition technology in the life-science fields participate in concentrated R&D to acquire technological knowledge in emerging R&D networks (iv) Industry-academia collaboration leads to continued R&D after a project.

    This paper suggests usefulness of intermediary company in business creation of high-tech startups that has peripheral capabilities and has organization of implementing core capabilities, and clarifies conditions and confines for intermediary company that is able to promote business creation of them. In existing studies, a lot of researchers indicate usefulness to collaborate with advanced user firm to create business in high-tech startups. These studies are discussing on usefulness and/or role of collaboration. High-tech startups, on the one hand, lack social trust, and have difficulty to form inter-company network with advanced user firm. Therefore, they cannot form inter-company network that build on the relationship of trust. In this surroundings, in semiconductor industry, semiconductor distributor formed inter-company network that build on the relationship of trust between high-tech startups and advanced user firm in a short period.

    Using the three-building blocks (knowledge/technology, actors and networks, institutions) for understanding sectoral innovation systems, this study analyzed the dynamic changes in innovative systems resulting from the innovative knowledge and technology achieved through research and development. Analysis of plant breeding, particularly the changes due to hybridization and genetically modified (GM) technology, suggests that the emergence of innovative knowledge and technology is related to: (i) a change in central actors or the arrival of new actors capable of incorporating such knowledge and technology; (ii) the expansion of institutions that increase incentives for actors to engage in research and development; and (iii) a requirement for institutions to connect innovative knowledge and technology with society. In recent years, there have been advances in the practical application of innovative knowledge and technology in the area of plant breeding; these are referred to as NBT (New Plant Breeding Techniques), and they suggest the possibility for further changes in innovation systems. Deliberation on future issues regarding policies on plant breeding should take into consideration the changing trajectory of the innovation systems resulting from NBT.
