Full Description
Written by leading authors, this engaging and topical book demonstrates the importance of entrepreneurship research at a time of turbulent environments as well as highlighting the most recent developments in the field. The contributors expertly provide empirical contributions from a broad set of European countries.
This book explores important avenues of new research and compares the differences in entrepreneurship between countries and regions. Viewing entrepreneurship as a dynamic learning and developmental process, the contributors discuss how the new ideological dialogue of entrepreneurship has started to expand its scope from business to society.
Researchers, practitioners and policymakers will find this informative resource a great opportunity to adopt these new ideas and develop them further in renewing their practices.
