Towards an Entrepreneurial Society

“The rise of the entrepreneur is not just about economics.

It reflects profound changes from individual careers to the social contract.

It signals the birth of an entrepreneurial society”

-The Economist- March 14, 2009

INNOVATIONIS

CHANGING

M.Hinoul

“ In a knowledge-based economy growth is inextricably linked to the capacity for innovation – the ability to transform knowledge and ideas into new products, processes or services. Healthy and innovative regional economies are the foundation of a nation’s competitiveness”

Deborah L. Wince-SmithPresident Council on Competitiveness

M.Hinoul

Innovation is the new form of competition

of the 21st century

M.Hinoul

The competition between regions is tough

M.Hinoul

Faster, Faster, Faster It requires wider collaboration across disciplines and

specialties (inter-disciplinary approach) The concept of intellectual property is being reexamined

in the light of these collaborative demands - patents It requires a wider collaboration of regions The trend is towards “open innovation”

M.Hinoul

Changing !

Disruptive companies challenge the norm and shake up their industries, leaving competitors struggling to catch up
