Dear Reader,

In this letter we are excited to present a new study on women entrepreneurs in the Nordics.

"The study gives us an overview of the current situation in the Nordic countries, and identifies obstacles for increased entrepreneurship amongst women. The study also suggests several measures that could remove some of these obstacles", says Marthe Haugland, Senior Innovation Adviser at Nordic Innovation.

"Now we will examine the findings and discuss how we can engage the larger public, the investors, the networks and politicians. But no one can close the gender gap alone. We need all of you to join us in this quest", Haugland adds.

Scroll down to read more about the study. In addition, you can read about a new report on health data legislation in the Nordics.

Best regards,
Nordic Innovation
