At the 9th Hanseatic Conference 2014 in Hamburg, representatives
from business organisations, academic institutions and policy
makers from all countries around the Baltic Sea exchanged their
experiences. This book contains the presented papers and a summary
of the discussion of the participants. The elimination of
discrimination by gender and age in working life is an important
social concern, regardless of economic needs. But increased labour
force participations of women and older people are also essential
for economic reasons in the light of demopgraphic developments and
changed conditions. Currently high and ever growing shortage of
entrepreneurs, managers and professionals are the factors that
increasingly limit economic development. There is an urgent need to
make better use of local labour potential, particularly via higher
labour force participation of women and older people in general.
Global competition requires high innovation and strong increases in
productivity of the entire Baltic Sea region, and especially in the
countries to the south of the Sea. The innovations and productivity
of companies benefit from increased proportion of women. The
greatest innovation and productivity reserves lie in the staff and
organisational development, including education; improvements in
this respect stipulate equal opportunities and strengthen
competitiveness. This publication was developed as part of the
flagship project of the EU Strategy for the Baltic Sea Region
"Innovative SMEs by Gender and Age (QUICK-IGA)."
