Abstract/Index
Theoretical framework and literature review. Biomimicry: definitions and levels. The paradox of non-diffusion. The literature gap. Theoretical frameworks. Conceptual models: archipelago and metabolic levels. Methodology. Research design. Case selection. Data collection. Analytical framework. Innovation ecosystem context: policy, market and the anatomy of barriers. Understanding innovation ecosystems applied to biomimicry. Systemic challenges in scaling bio-inspired innovations. The regulatory and policy landscape. Market dynamics and the investment landscape. Anatomy of barriers: why bio-inspired innovations fail. Results: innovation hubs as transition infrastructure. Linking technology readiness levels to innovation hubs. Relationship between hub infrastructure and innovation diffusion. Urban hubs—case studies. Rural and peri-urban hubs—case studies. Scale-up hubs: bridging the TRL 6–7 gap. Innovation trajectories: from prototype to market. Brownfields as future opportunities. Discussion: the archipelago model. Systemic conditions to catalyse bio-inspired innovation. Public-private partnerships and public procurement. Funding and the concentration paradox. The archipelago model: architecture and principles.
