ABOUT THIS BOOK
The volume presents and discusses a variety of recent developments and
achievements in research on entrepreneurship. It aims at taking a
systematic analysis of the theory and practice of entrepreneurship,
especially in regard to nurturing strategic systems, governance
arrangements, and evolutionary paths in organizations. Bringing
together the insights of an international recognized array of
academics, entrepreneurs, and executives, New Frontiers in
Entrepreneurship focuses on two key themes: (1) connecting
developments in entrepreneurship to current strategy thinking and
practice; and (2) generating new and innovative ways to cultivate and
develop entrepreneurial processes in new ventures and established
enterprises. Exploring such topics as the integration of
entrepreneurial and strategic thinking, corporate governance of new
ventures and spin-offs, business-university alliances, IPO
performance, the impact of Open Source, the role of science and
technology in new firm formation, and the emergence of the
entrepreneurial society. In the process, the authors demonstrate how
entrepreneurship promotes organizational genesis, growth, and
rejuvenation on a practical level, and consider on the research side
how entrepreneurship has developed from a peripheral sub-field of
management studies into one of the most relevant spheres of strategic
management.
