The world faces rapid technological disruption, economic uncertainty, climate change, and inequality. Entrepreneurship and innovation policy are crucial for building resilient and competitive regional economies, sustainable industries, and inclusive societies.
Many policymakers are seeking the right tools, frameworks, and networks to foster high-growth, innovation-driven enterprises (IDEs). IDEs create high-value jobs, enhance regional competitiveness, and tackle pressing societal challenges - from green tech solutions to biotech innovations for aging populations.
Our Innovation Policy Ignition Programme supports regional governments in designing adaptive, high-impact entrepreneurship and innovation action plans. The Programme aligns academia, industry, and investment to accelerate regional transformation. Its core aim is to drive sustainable economic growth and enable inclusive innovation.
