The Entrepreneurial State 2.0: Rethinking the State in the 21st century

Government & Politics

The UCL Institute for Innovation and Public Purpose (IIPP) invites you to the IIPP 2023 Festival and 5-Year Anniversary.

UCL IIPP 5-Year Anniversary - The Entrepreneurial State 2.0: Rethinking the State in the 21st century

Join Professor Mariana Mazzucato, Founding Director and Professor in the Economics of Innovation and Public Value at UCL Institute for Innovation and Public Purpose for the IIPP 2023 Festival and 5-Year Anniversary celebration: The Entrepreneurial State 2.0. - Rethinking the State in the 21st century​.

It is time for a new deal – one that unleashes the creative potential of the public sector, unlocks new green markets for businesses, and ensures economic opportunity and security for citizens. This is the vision of the Entrepreneurial State 2.0. However, as Franklin D. Roosevelt posited, “There are many ways of going forward, but only one of standing still.”

So how do we advance this bold view of the state as a key driver of challenge-oriented innovation? What are the ways in which we can create a symbiotic partnership between the private and the public sector? How do we build the dynamic public sector capabilities that put public purpose at the centre of policy design? And what role can modern industrial strategy play in steering mission-oriented growth across the economy, instead of siloed sectors?

This event will mark the 10th anniversary of the publication of Professor Mariana Mazzucato’s book The Entrepreneurial State: Debunking public vs. private sector myths and the 5th anniversary of the UCL Institute for Innovation and Public Purpose which she founded 5 years ago. It will open with a keynote speech by Mazzucato. Followed by a panel session by leaders stretching new economic thinking and new economic policies.
