| Summary: | Abstract The innovation policy of the new German government is at the threshold between the traditional and the transformative. In addition to company-oriented measures, current innovation policy in Germany is characterised above all by its orientation toward benefits for society as a whole.

Effects of the innovation policy arise in the areas of openness to technology, legitimacy of policy measures and participation. |
