stakeholders in the system

'Atakeholders' is very popular translation of "agentes". Also 'actors'. Often the two are considered synonymous.

Over 7,000,000 hits for "stakeholders in the system" (hard to believe!). Over 1,000,000 when narrowed to "science and technology". Examples:

members of the Spanish Science and Technology System (members, "players" a/o interested parties)

The system does formally exist. The Spanish version of the site refers to "actores" but has translated it as "members". "Players" sounds a bit wierd here. Maybe "members and interested parties?" The National Science and Technology Strategy (ENCYT) is a positioning document prepared with the collaboration of members of the Spanish Science and Technology System (General State Administration, Autonomous Regions, R&D&I executives, social agents, etc.), that summarises the main principles and general objectives that should govern the science and technology policies, both at national and regional levels, in the period 2007-2015.http://www.micinn.es/portal/site/MICINN/menuitem.7eeac5cd345... Spanish version: La Estrategia Nacional de Ciencia y Tecnología (ENCYT) es un documento de posición elaborado con la participación de los actores del sistema español de Ciencia y Tecnología (la Administración General del Estado, las CCAA, los ejecutores de la I+D+I, los agentes sociales, etc.), en el que se recogen los grandes principios y objetivos generales que han de regir las políticas de ciencia y tecnología, tanto nacionales como regionales, en el horizonte temporal 2007-2015.
