Entrepreneurial regional governance: Territorial cohesion through open innovation

  • 07 Dec 2022 to 08 Dec 2022
  • Prague, Czech Republic. Prague Congress Centre

ESPON recognises traces of Entrepreneurial Regional Governance in a number of incumbent and new policy processes and initiatives, notably in the Partnerships for Regional Innovation, the RIS3 for SDG initiative and the underlying Entrepreneurial Discovery Process, Open Governance and Public Sector Innovation. All these processes and initiatives can nurture societal innovation diffusion within regions, following the unprecedented opportunities given by the Framework Programme for Research and Innovation. Thus, allowing ‘societal innovation shortcuts’ made by the public sector to regions with higher affinity for cross-regional societal innovation. This appears to be a promising formula particularly but not exclusively for regions deprived of natural regional innovation systems for spatial, economic, social or historical reasons.
