Important results from the project
The main purpose and objective for Swedish Entrepreneurship Forum is to make research available and deepen the policy relevant knowledge of decision makers through analyses, communication and new platforms. These goals have been met since the Swedish Entrepreneurship Forum has conducted and diffused policy relevant research to it´s target groups. The research has been disseminated through a large number of conferences, seminars and published reports. Evaluations of the Forum´s activities show that the target groups find the content of the reports useful in their operations.
Expected long term effects
The research that Swedish Entrepreneurship Forum initiated and conducted has - through a large number of seminars, conferences and reports - contributed to conveying policy-relevant research to the Swedish Entrepreneurship Forum´s target groups; decision-makers at local, regional, national and European level. The research has also contributed to advance knowledge in the Swedish Entrepreneurship Forum´s main research areas: innovation, entrepreneurship and Enterprise, and its implications for industrial dynamism and growth.
Approach and implementation
During the project period, work has partly been conducted in Swedish Entrepreneurship Forum´s three sub-forums. This has contributed to discussion, dissemination and utilization of research findings. In addition, work has been done through a variety of projects and conferences such as Swedish Economic Forum, GEM, Småföretagsdagarna and Entreprenörskapsveckan. The work has been carried out by the Swedish Entrepreneurship Forum´s employees, sometimes in collaboration with other organizations. This has also served to make research available to broad target groups.
