Subject: Call for Data Sets

I was reading the recently published report on Advancing Measures of
Innovation workshop and thought you might be aware of data sets or people
who would be interested in a fall symposium that the Kauffman Foundation is
putting together.  Many thanks.  Forwarding email announcement below.

Call for Data Sets
2007 Kauffman Symposium on Entrepreneurship and Innovation Data
In the fall of 2007, the Kauffman Foundation will host a symposium for
entrepreneurship and innovation data at our offices in Kansas City,
Missouri. The Kauffman Foundation sees the creation and distribution of
data sets on entrepreneurship and innovation as a critical aspect of our
efforts to foster a deeper understanding of entrepreneurship and to
catalyze entrepreneurial success. The symposium will feature new data sets
supported by the Kauffman Foundation, including the Integrated Longitudinal
Business Database at the Census Bureau, the Kauffman Firm Survey, and the
Panel Study on Entrepreneurial Dynamics II. In addition, newly updated data
sets such as the National Bureau of Economic Research Patent Database will
be discussed. If you or your organization has a data set that is new,
recently made available or in progress that you would like us to consider
for inclusion in the 2007 Kauffman Symposium on Entrepreneurship and
Innovation Data, please contact E.J. Reedy at ereedy@kauffman.org by March
31, 2007.

To sign up to receive additional information about the 2007 Kauffman
Symposium on Entrepreneurship and Innovation Data when it is available, go

      Subject:        NSF Workshop Summary report & other updates

      Dear colleagues - We are pleased to announce the release of the
      summary report Advancing Measures of Innovation: Knowledge Flows,
      Business Metrics, and Measurement Strategies (NSF 07-306). The report
      is available in the main workshop page
      http://www.nsf.gov/statistics/workshop/innovation06/ and also at
      http://www.nsf.gov/statistics/nsf07306/. We are also organizing a
      special issue of the Journal of Technology Transfer based on workshop
      (and related) papers.

      Among recent activities since our workshop, SRS supported a workshop
      on uses of Human Resources Data, organized by Prof. Paula Stephan
      (papers at http://www2.gsu.edu/~ecopes/SRSprogram.htm). We also held
      a technical conference on the R&D NIPA Satellite Account (
      http://www.bea.gov/bea/rd/govt_conf.htm), a joint BEA/NSF project
      (see Survey of Current Business article
      http://www.bea.gov/bea/dn/home/satellite_natl.htm).

      We look forward to continue to collaborate as we move forward on
      indicators development and wish you the best in the New Year.

      Sincerely,

      Francisco
