8. Holistic innovation:
Vital to the service sector
For the service and public sectors, creative businesses, tourism and the
financial services industry where the customer is offered a service, the
key source of innovation is;
• The employee perspective, and not the tally of patents
Integrated and holistic governance is one of the five main goals of the
OECD's innovation strategy for 2010.
'Tourism Trends and Policies 2010'. The OECD sees innovation as the
key to the development of sustainable products and services. They are
currently identifying how various concepts can be developed and
combined with new tourism initiatives

– a world of opportunities
新的北欧食物

commercialisation by innovation
in the food, tourism and
experience industries in two
programs with New nordic food
18. An example taken from one
of our projects
The EXPLORE project:
One of Nordic Innovation’s "New Nordic Food projects”: Studied
restaurant and cafe business models and value chains in the farther
flung regions of the Nordic countries.
Demonstrated, that everyday cafes, such as the BIOS Cafe in
Nordreisa in the county of Troms, can play an active role as drivers
of profitability in the local experience economy.
Entrepreneurs want to be part of experience economy clusters
Focus on the development of value chains rather than viewing the
individual entrepreneur and her "product or service" in isolation
