Key roles of public authorities 3  Ensure fluidity of the risk capital market:  Support innovation and R&D investment in SMEs;  Identify SME real demand;  Improve the legal, administrative and fiscal environment to increase the flow of equity for early stage investment;  Provide investment readiness schemes to entrepreneurs.  Invest in public/private partnership to share risk in this market;  Raise awareness on a permanent basis

Three unavoidable building blocks  You cannot force companies to innovate if they are not hungry for it. Convincing them takes time and needs success stories  Financial tools must support a policy that is understandable by stakeholders (why, what, when)  The biggest problem in implementation often is the public sector itself
