Abstract
This paper attempts to identify the main elements of the unique Scandinavian government business policy formula for innovation start-up success, particularly in Sweden and Finland, which has been key in creating a region with an incredibly high density of “unicorns” (billion-dollar companies), second to Silicon Valley. The paper introduces the Scandinavian Democratic Governmental Support Model for Start-Ups and Innovations (SDeGMSI), a globally applicable public sector model for the support and encouragement of start-ups and business innovation. The model is based on Scandinavian governments’ practices while also accounting factors such as cultural values, the performance of local economies, and demographic characteristics. The democratic dimension is powered with the Company Democracy Model, another Scandinavian innovation management model. SDeGMSI provides critical, fair, and unbiased support of the government to all the organizations and start-ups that can demonstrate significant and valuable intellectual capital for the economy and society.
