Abstrakt: Systemic intermediation is pivotal for the operationalisation of transformative research and innovation (R&I) policy. This paper examines systemic intermediation at lower and higher system levels, focusing on the activities and networks that emerge through the implementation of a portfolio of R&I programmes and projects. By examining EIT Climate KIC's portfolio through a mixed methods approach, combining semi-structured interviews with programme managers and social network analysis of food-related innovation projects, we uncover how distinct intermediation activities and network characteristics at two system levels underpin systemic intermediation. The paper demonstrates how systemic intermediation can be operationalised in R&I policy through a strategically aligned portfolio of R&I programmes and projects. This portfolio approach enables synergies between multiple interventions across system levels, enhancing complementarities and resource flows between projects, programmes, and overarching strategic objectives. The findings provide guidance for R&I policymakers on designing and implementing policy instruments that can effectively contribute to transformative change by leveraging systemic intermediation across system levels. The paper advances both scholarly understanding and policy practice in designing and implementing transformative R&I policy instruments. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
