El concepto de estrategias de especialización inteligente (S3) ha dominado el panorama de política regional en la última década, lo que ha implicado un cambio en las políticas regionales de innovación desde políticas neutrales y horizontales hacia políticas que fijan prioridades en investigación e innovación. A pesar de que el foco de las S3 se sitúa en la investigación y la innovación, podemos encontrar semejanzas entre estas estrategias y las políticas industriales. La crisis socioeconómica causada por la pandemia de la COVID-19 subraya la necesidad de adoptar una aproximación más amplia de las políticas de innovación e industrial en donde las transiciones verde y digital desempeñen un papel central. Sin embargo, esto no es una tarea fácil, ya que conlleva cambios en los fundamentos de las políticas, nuevos instrumentos, un papel más emprendedor del gobierno, y una consideración más amplia, multidominio y a largo plazo de las estrategias industriales y de innovación. El objetivo de este artículo es reflexionar sobre el nexo entre las S3 y la política industrial, y el potencial que su combinación ofrece para las transiciones sostenibles, en el contexto de las experiencias del País Vasco.
