Résumé

Entrepreneurship has always been a key factor in economic growth, innovation, and the development of firms and businesses. More recently, new technologies, the waning of the 'old economy', globalization, changing cultures and popular attitudes, and new policy stances have further highlighted the importance of entrepreneurship and enterprise.

Entrepreneurship is now a dynamic and expanding area of research, teaching, and debate, but there has been no standard reference work which is suitable for both established scholars and new researchers. This book fills that gap. All the major aspects of entrepreneurship are covered, including:

the start-up and growth of firms,
financing and venture capital,
innovation, technology and marketing,
women entrepreneurs,
ethnic entrepreneurs,
migration,
small firm policy,
the economic and social history of entrepreneurship.

This is a comprehensive review of state-of-the-art research in entrepreneurship, written by an international team of leading scholars, and will be an essential reference for academics and policy makers, as well as being suitable for use on masters courses and doctoral programmes.

Readership: Academics, researchers, and advanced students of Entrepreneurship, Industrial Economics, Business Strategy, Organizational Behaviour, Finance and Venture Capital, and Business and Economic History.
