Abstract

Der Aufbau von Unterstützungsinfrastrukturen - wie sie für wissenschaftlich-technischen Innovationen seit langem etabliert sind - befinden sich mit Blick auf Soziale Innovationen (SI) noch in den Anfängen, ebenso wie die diesbezügliche Forschung. Bislang mangelt es uns an einem systematischen Verständnis der Unterstützungsbedarfe sozialer Innovator:innen mit ihren variierenden Innovationsprozessen und Diffusionspfaden. Unbestritten ist: so individuell und kontextspezifisch wie SI sind, so individuell ist auch ihr Unterstützungsbedarf. Folglich kann es nicht das eine optimale soziale Innovationsökosystem (SIES) geben. Ein Eckpfeiler eines idealtypischen SIES - so zeigen unsere Untersuchungen - ist das Zusammenbringen von Akteuren aus Wirtschaft, Wissenschaft, Politik und Zivilgesellschaft. Ein weiterer Eckpfeiler ist die Schaffung institutioneller Rahmenbedingungen, die Raum schaffen für die Innovationsaktivitäten unterschiedliche Typen von sozialen Innovator:innen, variierende Innovationsprozesse und Diffusionspfade. Dabei bedingt die Governance von SIES neue bzw. veränderte Rollenzuschreibungen: Politik wird zu einem Akteur im SIES. Wissenschaft übernimmt vermehrt die Rolle der Befähigung sozialer Innovator:innen.
