Abstract

This thesis aims to develop a framework for the UAE to activate its national innovation ecosystem. The present study was guided by the following research questions: What is the current nature of the national innovation ecosystem that exists in the UAE? What are the main drivers that influence or hinder a sustainable (educational) innovation-based national ecosystem? How can the UAE Government best promote and activate a successful national innovation ecosystem? These questions were answered using qualitative and quantitative methods to gather data about innovation in the UAE. A total of 24 semi-structured interviews were conducted and thematically analysed, representing the qualitative aspect of the study. Then, 207 descriptively analysed surveys were conducted, providing quantitative data. These were used to validate the qualitative findings. An initial draft of the national innovation framework was developed, which was validated through further semi-structured interviews with six influential policymakers from the UAE national ecosystem of innovation. Their input was considered carefully and used to refine the final version of the framework.
