| Summary: | The growth landscape of Bosnia and
Herzegovina (BiH) is undermined by adverse productivity
developments and weak private sector development. BiH is
still finding a pathway to rebalance its current public
sector-led growth model to a private sector-led one. In this
light, enhancing innovation and entrepreneurship (I and E)
is a key priority for BiH. This report provides a
comprehensive assessment of the current I and E landscape in
BiH and offers a roadmap for innovation policy reforms. It
showcases current I and E outcomes in BiH and provides
analysis of whether current support policies and programs in
BiH (including public budget allocations) address existing
market failures. The report concludes that recent policy
measures have not effectively addressed BiH's needs for
supporting I and E, specifically in terms of access to
skills, ease of business regulations, and predictability of
business environment. To this end, this report offers a
roadmap for policy reforms as well as suggestions for pilot programs. |
