Abstract
In spite of several decades of using Forward-Looking Activities (FLAs) in the context of science, technology and innovation (STI) policies, our knowledge of the actual impacts of foresight on national innovation systems is still very limited and based on case-by-case evidence - mainly evaluation reports or case descriptions - rather than systematic comparative analyses. However, it is widely acknowledged that apart from looking forward in substantive terms, an intelligent process design can also contribute to shaping the innovation system for which an FLA is conducted. Ultimately, the purpose of understanding impacts is to contribute to the design of more appropriate and effective FLAs.
