Abstract
Given the increasing significance of the co-evolution between advanced and growing economies for problem-solving innovation that aims at solving global critical issues, this paper attempts an empirical analysis to identify the optimal co-evolutionary trajectory, which could benefit both advanced and growing economies. While Japan has succeeded to develop the hybrid management of technology fusing indigenous strength and learning ability, it has revealed some limitations during the global simultaneous economic stagnation. The analysis suggests that the dual hybrid management of technology coevolving also with growing economies is decisive to the problem-solving innovation of the nation. This benefits nations in growing economies as well. This paper provides new insights into the problem-solving innovation, and also inducing strategy of growing economies for global sustainability.
