Innovation-led growth has contributed substantially to improving income and well-being across all groups in society. Their objective is to provide all segments of society with equal opportunities to successfully participate in and benefit from innovation. While most of these policies can be broadly classified by inclusiveness type (Box 3), in some cases they simultaneously address social, industrial and/or territorial inclusiveness challenges. For example, Ireland’s Competitive Start Fund for Female Entrepreneurs aims to promote the integration of an underrepresented group -women- in entrepreneurship activities (“social inclusiveness”) and to address critical financial barriers faced by start-ups (“industrial inclusiveness”).
