Full Description
Entrepreneurship in the Digital and Sustainable Era provides a timely exploration of the twofold development of entrepreneurship research: refining well-established concepts like social and human capital while responding to emerging trends such as digitalisation and sustainability. The book presents key findings in a variety of contexts, detailing the challenges and opportunities faced by entrepreneurs in today's complex business environment.
Expert contributors employ diverse research approaches, including qualitative case studies, FsQCA analysis, and content analysis, to capture the multifaceted nature of entrepreneurship. They explore the critical influence of gender, networks, and entrepreneurial resilience in shaping business success and highlight the transformative impact of digital technologies and sustainable business models, addressing ethical concerns and the evolving role of digital platforms. While many discussions are rooted in the European entrepreneurship landscape, the book also presents case studies from other regions, including Africa, providing a broader international perspective.
This book is of interest not only to those studying entrepreneurship but also to those exploring shifts in the economic landscape related to business practices. It is relevant to a broad audience, including doctoral students at the beginning of their research journeys as well as scholars seeking insightful findings in their respective fields.
