1998 UK Government White Paper Building a Knowledge Driven Economy

©

“ Our success depends on how well we exploit our most valuable assets: our knowledge, skills and creativity.

These are key to designing high-value

goods and services and advanced business practices. They are at the heart of a modern, knowledge driven economy.”

“Government needs to learn and innovate as much as the private sector and it must create new mechanisms for sharing ideas and best practices.”
