Creation of favorable conditions for innovations for the purpose of the entire economy optimization is the Germany’s main way to ensure innovation politics. Total amount of contracts in public sector in Germany is estimated at 300 billion. That is how state can stimulate the development of innovation using public procurement as the effective fostering instrument. Germany defines legal tendering procedures and particular business methods as promotion for innovation, while ensuring the principle of economic efficiency.
