Abstract

Entrepreneurship and firm creation have long been recognised as a vital force driving innovation. With globalization and the co-incident shift towards a knowledge-based economy, the link between entrepreneurship policy and innovation has received renewed attention. By underpinning firm creation and firm expansion entrepreneurship policies strengthen innovation, increasing productivity in the enterprise sector. In return, policies fostering innovation will tend to spur firm creation as the results of R&D are commercialized. Many countries have taken initiatives since early 2000 to test the potential of entrepreneurship and SME policies, articulating these with an innovation-oriented policy approach. This report consists of a synthesis report based on four country case studies on the role of entrepreneurship policies in supporting innovation in Korea, Mexico, Norway and Turkey. These country case studies are appended to the synthesis report. Promouvoir l'entrepreunariat pour soutenir l'innovation L’entrepreneuriat et les créations d’entreprises sont traditionnellement considérés comme l’un des principaux moteurs de l’innovation. Avec la mondialisation et la transition concomitante vers une économie du savoir, le lien entre les politiques de l’innovation et celles en faveur de l’entrepreneuriat revient sur le devant de la scène. En soutenant la création d’entreprises et leur expansion les politiques en faveur de l’entrepreneuriat renforcent l’innovation et la croissance de la productivité. Réciproquement, les politiques de soutien à l’innovation favorisent généralement la création d’entreprises, car les résultats des activités de R-D sont commercialisés. De nombreux pays ont engagé, dès le début des années 2000, un examen systématique des politiques en faveur de l’entrepreneuriat et des PME, en optant pour une approche axée sur l’innovation. Ce rapport consiste d’un rapport de synthèse basé sur quatre études de cas portant sur le rôle joué par les politiques en faveur de l’entrepreneuriat dans la promotion de l’innovation en Corée, au Mexique, en Norvège et en Turquie. Chacune de ces études de cas est annexée au rapport de synthèse.
