\n ESBRI works to disseminate research-based knowledge about <\/em>\n<\/strong>\n innovation, entrepreneurship and small business.<\/em>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

The aim is to raise awareness of these issues in society and contribute to Sweden’s competitiveness. We do this by writing popular science news articles on the latest research in the field. We also organize digital and physical events where national and international innovation and entrepreneurship researchers share their latest research. ESBRI has access to an extensive national and international network.<\/p>\n

We address a broad public with an interest in innovation and entrepreneurship research, as well as entrepreneurs, researchers, experts, politicians and other decision-makers. ESBRI was founded in 1996 and stands for Entrepreneurship and Small Business Research Institute. The initiative was taken by inventor and entrepreneur Leif Lundblad, who co-financed the operation until 2004. Since then, ESBRI is funded by project and program funds and through partnerships. Today, we are Sweden’s leading independent knowledge platform in this field.<\/p>\n

The benefits of Esbri<\/b>
Our universities, colleges and research institutes have many exciting research projects underway in the fields of innovation, entrepreneurship and small business. But the results of research rarely reach society at large or, more specifically, practitioners and politicians. Through our activities, we create a bridge between research and society, so that new knowledge reaches and is used. Only then can entrepreneurs, policymakers and other decision-makers make informed decisions, leading to a stronger entrepreneurial ecosystem and more sustainable growth. We are convinced that this strengthens Sweden’s competitiveness!<\/p>\n

English information<\/strong><\/p>

Esbri is Sweden’s leading independent knowledge platform for the dissemination of research-based knowledge about innovation, entrepreneurship, and small business. Esbri works to increase societal knowledge about these topics and to contribute to Sweden’s competitiveness by addressing a broad audience including entrepreneurs, subject matter experts, politicians, and other decision-makers. We do this by writing popular science news articles about research in the field. We also organize and operate digital and physical events where national and international innovation and entrepreneurship researchers present their latest research.<\/p>

Esbri was started by the Swedish inventor and entrepreneur Leif Lundblad in 1996 and he co-financed the organization until 2004. Esbri is now financed by project and program funding and through collaborations with funding partners.<\/p>

Universities, colleges, and research institutes constantly generate exciting research projects in the fields of innovation, entrepreneurship, and small business. But the results of this research rarely reach society at large or, more specifically, practitioners, policy makers, and regulators. With our activities, Esbri creates a bridge between the research community and broader society resulting in a greater impact from research-based knowledge outside of academia than is traditionally the case. This knowledge helps entrepreneurs, policy makers, and other decision makers make more informed decisions, leading to a stronger entrepreneurial ecosystem. ESBRI is proud of its tradition of strengthening Sweden’s competitiveness and looks forward to continuing that mission.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
