The Florida Innovation Study was undertaken to identify opportunities that might accelerate Florida’s economic diversification efforts.  The two primary objectives of the study were to identify gaps in Florida’s innovation economy development system and to provide examples of programs, policies and initiatives currently underway in competitive states that could be implemented in Florida to fill those gaps.  In addition, the study is intended to provide a basis of discussion within Florida’s economic development community to build a foundation of support for future enhancements to Florida’s ability to foster the development of an innovation-based economy.
