| description | <p class="first" id="d268874e93">This study suggests that a concierge service, provided by governments, can assist
startups to gain streamlined access to the services, capabilities and capital required
to bring innovation efficiently and cost-effectively to market. It analyses a range
of concierge models in five separate jurisdictions to determine best practice. The
paper develops a rationale and working definition for a concierge service that will
assist public sector managers to help young high-growth SMEs and startups to navigate
the increasingly complex innovation ecosystem.
