Morning all, I thought I would have a go at visualising the different ways that government agencies can utilise their data & research[1]. I'm not very happy with the two axes, and am having trouble putting things in the right place. Still, there seems to be more patterns than I had expected. Am interested to see what you think. Feel free to enhance things as you see fit. -Tim. [1] http://docs.google.com/drawings/edit?id=1czmuvV31kW_fJHKIUNqNlxD0GI_6rKkARHeOSP2tx64&hl=en_GB
That seems to imply that universities and CRIs are 'private sector'
maybe you want to clarify the terminology?
cheers

Yes, things are somewhat unclear. Things in the bottom right are basically
things that started off with public sector money, advice or expertise, but
are intended to be private operations over time.
That's one of the reasons why I thought I would take a spectrum approach,
rather than a binary one.
Hi Tim,
I'd suggest drawing a square around it and making it into quadrants. It
gives less of an impression of something being better (higher and to the
right) than others.
You might also want to rethink the terms "public sector" and "private
sector"; maybe think of it in terms of values/benefits. Government
(value to NZers); community (value to community group, either
geographical or shared interest) , business (value to shareholders)
I'd be interested in how you would then capture shared owership of
information, such as we're now starting to see being developed in supply
chains through cooperatives - it generates value for all three types then.
