Anne,
It is GREAT to hear from you. ☺ I wish that I was as active at conferences but…. Just teaching right now. Can you send your information as a regular post rather than an attachment? Entrep does not distribute postings with attachments.
I will get it on for you if you can resend.
Thanks

Hi, John, how are you doing? I haven't seen you in a while - I hope all is well. i"ve been at the Academy, USASBE, and this year at SMS, but kind of in and out, so I shouldn't be surprised. It would be great to get an update. Mark Ahn may have already sent this (and you may have already sent it around - and I may have missed it) but we are working on a bioscience entrepreneurship case book with colleagues from Stanford and Colorado Health Sciences with a deadline for abstracts due Nov. 1. I'm attaching the call - if you haven't distributed it to the ENT list members, would you mind? We would be grateful. Thanks so much! Anne

Special Issue: Financial Market Development and Entrepreneurship in Sub-Saharan Africa

After many decades of stagnation and financial repression, greater access to finance has been providing an unprecedented stimulus to entrepreneurship in sub-Saharan Africa in recent years. In particular, the development of financial markets has boosted high-potential entrepreneurial ventures in sectors ranging from biotechnology to telecommunications and services. With the world now staring its worst financial and economic crisis in 80 years in the face, the question has been raised: what are the implications of this development for further financial market development in sub-Saharan Africa, and how the crisis may impact on entrepreneurship. As such the time is ripe for an appraisal of financial market development and entrepreneurship in sub-Saharan Africa.
In particular, the JEF is planning a special issue devoted to this topic, and is calling for scholarly papers that will further our understanding of Africa's financial markets, how they do and do not support entrepreneurship, how their development may be related to the commodity-price cycle, how international uncertainties will impact on their development, and what steps may be need to further promote financial markets. Whether and how seed, startup, and early stage finance, such as venture capital (VC) and angel investing, can play a role in start-ups in Africa's often risky and institutionally weak environments is one aspect in this regard that has been relatively neglected in the recent literature. Papers presenting case studies, cross-country comparisons, theoretical and empirical analysis as well as literature reviews are welcome, and both quantitative and qualitative research methods will be considered.
Papers conforming to the editorial guidelines of JEF should be submitted to the JEF secretariat at
elsien@uj.ac.za<mailto:
elsien@uj.ac.za> and authors should clearly indicate in their covering letter that their paper is intended for the "Special Issue on Financial Market Development and Entrepreneurship in Africa."
The deadline for submission is September 30, 2009.
Papers will be reviewed using the normal double-blind process at JEF.
