INNOVATION AND THE SUPPLY CHAIN Sample Clauses

INNOVATION AND THE SUPPLY CHAIN. At its most simplistic, there is a positive relationship between investment in large-scale science and the benefit to society through the translation and industrialisation of innovative technologies into applications, products and services, in addition to the progress of scientific understanding. However, this over simplistic model does not adequately capture the complexities associated with national and international-scale Research Infrastructures such as particle accelerators. These machines are some of the largest, most complex and technologically advanced machines on Earth. They are at the cutting-edge of advanced technology development and require state of the art test and validation infrastructure to underpin their construction and operation. At face value, this is an environment ideally suited to innovation, where experience gained through development of such ‘flagship’ projects can be readily translated to more ‘practical’ applications. In reality, the relationship between the RIs and its Supply Chain is many–tiered and complex. Development timescales can be extremely lengthy, encompassing very high levels of technical risk. The subsequent market potential for any technical solutions may be very limited or highly unpredictable, with many research projects undergoing years of preparatory development before failing to secure the large capital funding required for construction. As a commercial sales opportunity, the RI market can best be described as unpredictable and high risk. Similarly, the routes to societal markets for some of the innovation stimulated by the RIs are not necessarily straightforward. There are many examples of elegant and innovative high- end technology in search of true ‘real world’ applications. Nonetheless, the success of the current RIs is testament to the determination and capabilities of their Supply Chain, and many companies are clearly able to thrive in such a challenging market. It is also evident that whilst both academia and Industry can envisage benefits from closer cooperation on shared technology challenges, there is rarely enough pull from either side for these activities to be self-starting or self-sustaining. There are a few notable exceptions where co-innovation has been the natural route to progress (e.g. European XFEL cryomodules) but the underlying theme is that such synergies have so far been underexploited. European scientific research represents a very large investment of taxpayers’ money. In addition to ou...
