In line with earlier contributions, Lehoux et al outline priorities for research, public communication, and policy action to achieve this objective. We endorse setting these priorities, while also highlighting a ‘commitment gap’ in collectively addressing system-level challenges. To acknowledge that stakeholders engaged in dialogue with one another are addressing the commitment gap is not a small step but a giant leap towards realising a socially responsible innovation agenda. Translating system-level demand signals into innovation opportunities is, therefore, the task-cum-art of all stakeholders, one that often prompts them to innovate how they deal with innovations.}, keywords = {Innovation Policy,Stakeholder Participation,Social Entrepreneurship,Health Technology Assessment,Responsible Innovation}, url = {https://www.ijhpm.com/article_3645.html}, eprint = {https://www.ijhpm.com/article_3645_ad828ea56e3839344d68fae22541b403.pdf} }
