The future of the innovation system policy in developing countries: Through an analysis of the pharmaceutical companies in Algeria

Abstract

The objective of the paper is to evaluate the adoption and adaptation of public innovation policies in developing countries, and especially in the case of Algeria. As many authors have pointed out, innovation is seen as a determining factor for business competitiveness and regional growth. However, innovation is determined by the economic and industrial context and then becomes a difficult phenomenon to promote or apply. But how can governments promote or drive innovation? Can developing country governments follow the course or the path followed by rich and developed countries? However, this is an unresolved issue in the academic literature that has involved currents of controversy.We propose to develop a model, based on an analysis of the academic literature, after that we analyse the weather of the innovation system policy in pharmaceutical companies in the region. The research in aim, takes into account those factors and the predominant innovation model in the region.
