Presentations and discussion will take into account the role of innovation, not only as it affects economic growth and productivity directly, but also as a mechanism for creating greater public good and meeting social challenges such as those associated economic mobility, health, civic engagement, population aging, or climate change. Workshop participants should also imagine how new kinds of information -- e.g., naturally occurring, unstructured, digital data -- may be used to complement more traditional survey and administrative data in the construction of innovation metrics.

Key issues pertaining to the changing face of innovation and potential approaches to its measurement will be identified. NCSES will provide an overview of the agency's goals and future directions, recent work, and the variety of studies initiated on innovation and human capital data.

11:00 Innovation Measurement Agendas of the Future Going forward, new measures of science and technology describing inputs and outcomes associated with innovative activity will be needed, and multiple data modes will be called upon. Commercial data, some recover able from Web scraping and other computer science methods, may shape future measurement in a range of areas -- e.g., new product introduction, quality change, prices and productivity, product diffusion -- where large datasets provide advantage in terms of granularity, timeliness, geographic specificity, etc.

The goal is to emerge from the meeting envisioning priorities for NCSES data collection programs as the agency seeks to make its statistics relevant to data users and producers across measurement, academic, and practitioner communities spanning both the public and private sectors. 2:00 pm Planned Adjournment
