‘Innovation in Low-Tech Firms and Industries challenges the currently fashionable notion that the advent of a “knowledge-based economy” demands that all social resources should be diverted to “high-technology” industries. Hirsch-Kreinsen and Jacobson point out these constitute a small part of even the most advanced economies. Attention has been diverted from the important innovation processes which occur in low and medium technology (LMT) sectors. This volume calls on us to achieve a much better – and wiser – balance in our industrial policy.’
