Abstract

The article presents and appraises the innovative performance of Greece from the 1990s to the present and argues that Greece’s economic strategy up to now has had little if anything to do with entrepreneurship and innovation. It focuses on two new groundbreaking reform initiatives proposed by the ministries of development and education, that provide, for the first time, the dynamics that could enable the country’s economy to overcome some of its crippling dysfunctions and steer it towards entrepreneurship, innovation and business clusters. The article concludes that where public administration economic strategies and public universities have failed, privately owned universities and the newly proposed entrepreneurial parks could finally guide the economy towards the right path.
