The Agency for Innovation, Scientific and Technological Development and Entrepreneurship (INOVA) is a government agency in North Macedonia tasked with fostering scientific research, technological innovation, and entrepreneurship among small and medium-sized enterprises. Its mandate includes financing research-and-development initiatives, facilitating green and digital business transformations, and bridging ties between academia and the private sector. Established in 2025 under a comprehensive innovation law, INOVA was formed through the consolidation and replacement of the former Fund for Innovations and Technology Development (FITR) and the Agency for Promotion of Entrepreneurship.
