Abstract

In 2010, the European Union codified “Smart, Sustainable, and Inclusive Growth” (SSIG) as part of the Europe 2020 Strategy. Introduced in the context of the global financial crisis, SSIG seeks to restore economic resiliency and foster a more equitable, innovative and environmentally sustainable European economy. The research evaluates the processes of entrepreneurship through which small and medium enterprises (SMEs) contribute to SSIG, including through “innovation-driven entrepreneurship,” “sustainable entrepreneurship” and “social entrepreneurship.” The research additionally assesses the creation of an enabling regulatory and fiscal environment for these modes of value creation, their associated socio-economic outcomes and their monitoring and evaluation practices.
