Purpose In this paper, the authors aim to examine some characteristics of the innovation system and policy in France and China. For comparison, they also highlight some high technology features of Silicon Valley and California. Design/methodology/approach The authors study the characteristics of innovation in France and in China. The authors examine the technology systems and policies in both countries and compare their features with those in Silicon Valley. Findings As far as France is concerned, it can be stated that the innovation system and policy are under transformation, going from a strong state involvement to a more decentralized framework. This evolution leads to a multi-level governance of the innovation system and to the emergence of new actors. For China, the most interesting development in China is the evolution of its internet-related sector. The authors argue here that the internet-driven economy is a radical, systemic technological change and it is rapidly growing in China. Originality/value One of the earliest papers comparing the innovation policies and activities in France, China and Silicon Valley.

EDITOR’S NOTE: The author is uniquely qualified to comment on his subject. He has recently retired from a major oil company and has had an opportunity to view the contractor‐client relationship from both sides of the fence. It is my hope that his editorial will stimulate comment from interested readers on all sides of this issue. Exploration geophysics is high technology business. A seismic crew or data processing center with state‐of‐the‐art equipment, processes, and techniques of a few years ago would have difficulty finding work today (even though they might be adequate to the problems). Technological obsolescence of equipment involves large depreciation costs. A rapid, steady flow of new ideas support the high technology. These ideas are created by both contractor and client companies. Generating these ideas involves large costs but the costs are not always shared by the benefactors. The interchange of ideas throughout exploration geophysics is here called technology transfer and it involves economic and ethical considerations. Examination of these is the subject of this editorial.
