Latin America is styled by the 2016 Global Innovation Index as ""a region with untapped innovation potential [but] with important risks to innovation efforts in the near-term"". A crucial element to avoiding the risks, and realising the potential, is the capability and capacity of the innovation system in the countries and region to nurture and support effective innovation policies. Part of the issue is simply understanding the current state of play of the innovation system. For example, what areas of capability are being focused on which innovation challenges? How do parts of the system work together? What skills and authority are they deploying to achieve their goals, and why? For this we need stronger analyses of both the individual institutions which develop and deliver innovation policy, and the ways in which they interact to create an (effective) system for innovation.
