With 'Main focus or pinpoint attack', a further substantiation has taken place regarding the content and direction of the action program Knowledge and Innovation, which is being developed under the leadership of the project Knowledge and Innovation. Insights that have been gained now need to be better embedded in the various organizational components of the Dutch Ministry of Infrastructure and Water Management, so that the main lines of the analysis are shared there and can be placed in the perspective of existing activities. Furthermore, it is important for the organizational components to prepare themselves self-critically for initiatives and products from the Ministry of Infrastructure and Water Management Knowledge and Innovation Council, which started in June. This council will bring in knowledge and innovation initiatives 'from outside to inside' through the distinct petals (the Ministry of Infrastructure sectors). To promote embedding, at the initiative of the project direction KenI, a short trajectory will be organized for each organizational component in early autumn 2004. The focus will not only be on sharing insights and analysis but also on formulating a discussion document per organizational component. This discussion document will appropriately agendaize the subject of Knowledge and Innovation at the relevant Directorate. The central question is how the particular organizational component of the Ministry of Infrastructure and Water Management can contribute to enhancing the Innovation Capacity of the respective Ministry of Infrastructure sector.
