The Co-laboratory of Innovation with Public Purpose (CLIPP) is a space that transforms knowledge into disruptive innovations: a place where polycentric collaboration, transdisciplinarity, technological incorporation, and effectiveness evaluation articulate a transfer model guided by public purpose.

Its mission is to accelerate the transition towards economic, social, and environmental development in the country by establishing a new transfer model for innovations with public purpose.

This mission is expressed in the following strategic objectives:

Change the logic for addressing some of the complex challenges we face globally and nationally, with proposals for disruptive innovation.

Deploy systemic responses from a highly integrated approach based on diverse valuable ideas within the scope of a shared public purpose.

Articulate, through transdisciplinary collaboration, the best scientific evidence through a polycentric governance ecosystem that implements options for effective change.

Accelerate, through a new model of technology transfer and incorporation, the transformations that enable the development of sustainable innovations in specific lines of work.

Valuable ideas to be transfered

Cross the street

This book presents a model of innovation with a public purpose for polycrisis contexts. By recognizing failures and critical issues, the book shows how the CLIPP can transform these limitations into disruptive innovations, articulating polycentric collaboration, transdisciplinary knowledge, technology, implementation from design, and early measurement of effectiveness.

Chile's slow pace

This book brings together 29 policy briefs that transform Chile's concerns and uncertainties into proposals for innovation with a public purpose. From the University of Chile, the book articulates evidence, technology, and knowledge transfer to address national challenges—aligned with the SDGs and the CTCI strategy—offering concrete ideas for a more just, sustainable, and hopeful development.

Innovating from failure

This book presents the main results of the FONDEF ID17I10033 project, which developed an early warning prototype for child protection programs from a rights-based approach. Through a typology of warning and effectiveness, it challenges systems by observing their failures and proposes an analysis matrix to improve implementation, interrupt deficient trajectories, and expand opportunities for children and adolescents.

Implement effectively

This book presents the Multidimensional Effectiveness Index (IME), a measurement system with eight analytical dimensions that allows us to observe the effectiveness of childhood programs, broaden our understanding of what it means to be “effective,” and support timely decisions to improve their design, implementation, and sustainability.
