Beschreibung
What is the situation and perceived future outlook for forestry in Central Europe? What is the role of innovation and entrepreneurship as main driving forces for economic growth, competitiveness and employment creation? Research results of the EFI Regional Project Centre INNOFORCE provide new knowledge on the sector's innovation and entrepreneurial behaviour as well as on policy measures necessary to enhance innovation and entrepreneurship in the region. Survey results are accompanied by lessons learned from more than 30 cases referring to innovations in forestry implemented in eight Central European countries.
