Abstract
In Knowledge-Based-Economy, capturing and leveraging the value of innovation is generally held to be the path for sustainable wealth creation and regional development. In globalization knowledge era, intelligent National Innovation System (NIS) can accomplish noticeable standards of welfare and regional economic development. The Egyptian national innovation ecosystem is not serving the economic development well. Although, there are some activities that have been spent in establishing the national innovation ecosystem but the results were not as predicted. Academia entities - that are called the innovation factory - are working in isolated islands. Additionally, industrial sector is not linked to the scientific producers as well because of many critical reasons. Therefore, it is an essential requirement to have a future innovation strategy. A part of this strategy is building an intelligent innovation system to effectively connect these isolated components and to provide practical solutions to some of the existing social problems. This research provided a proposal of intelligent NIS for regional development- that gathers, organizes, and leads the national commercialization innovation practices. This model is a comprehensive system that can be customized to work simultaneously as a national innovation system and as a regional development system. This model tried to achieve many benefits (e.g. to accelerate the economic growth, solve the social problems with scientific ways and to allow the contribution of the innovation ecosystem in the country modernization). This proposal used the artificial intelligence as an analytical tool to analyze, match and suggest innovative solutions to every region based on specific criteria.
