Innovation and entrepreneurship are central for economic growth, yet not all regions have equal access to these opportunities. Geographical disparities persist, particularly between urban and rural areas. This workshop focuses on the challenges and opportunities of fostering innovation in rural areas, by presenting work to identify policies for innovation in rural areas in a number of OECD countries, and to analyse start-up activities in rural regions across the European Union.
