 tion\n\nPeter WB Phillips\n\nPeter WB Phillips is a Distinguished Professo
 r of Public Policy and Founding Director of the Centre for the Study of Sc
 ience and Innovation Policy within the Johnson Shoyama Graduate School of 
 Public Policy at the University of Saskatchewan. He earned his Ph.D. at th

 search Professor\, created and held an NSERC-SSHRC Chair in Managing Techn
 ological Change in Agriculture\, was director of the virtual College of Bi
 otechnology\, was founding director of the JSGS.\n\nAbstract\n\nThis webin
 ar will explore a range of challenges of organizing and governing innovati
 on in the context of re-search networks\, partnerships\, and innovation sy
 stems. The generational effort to exploit scale and scope ben-efits of lar
 ger scale research is now facing transformative change due to the advent o
 f the massive intercon-nectivity of everything through the Internet of Thi
 ngs. Structuring these collaborative ventures is challenging at the best o
 f times\, as search\, negotiation and enforcement costs are significant. T
 he rewiring of our research system via the IoT will make a difficult proce
 ss even more complicated. This webinar will review the ideas\, in-centives
  and institutions that govern this space\, and address some real-world exa
 mples of governance strate-gies and challenges drawn from research on Cana
 dian agri-food research efforts.\n\n\nAbout the series\n\nThe Convergent I
 nnovation Webinar Series will feature cutting edge science\, technology an
 d innovation in agriculture\, food and health domains as well as in the be
 havioural\, commercial\, social and complexity sciences. These\, combined 
 with traditions from around the world\, will altogether articulate an inte
 rdisciplinary research and action strategy to transform agricultural produ
 cts like pulses from undifferentiated commodities into higher-margin whole
  and value-added food products that support sustainable development and af
 fordable healthcare. Progressively\, programs in the CI-Food webinar serie
 s will be developed for other agricultural products with high CI potential
 \, e.g.\, dairy\, fruits\, vegetables\, and others.\n
