Descrizione
Riassunto:"Using ideas from natural ecology to better understand entrepreneurship as complex systems, this book offers a different research approach to explain how entrepreneurship operates within specific regional contexts. The book aims to: - show how ecological thinking offers a fresh perspective on entrepreneurial ecosystems. - demonstrate how this approach differs from traditional entrepreneurship research. - provide practical guidelines for researchers and policymakers working in regional entrepreneurship. It concludes that a holistic, interdisciplinary approach-similar to how ecologists study natural environments-is essential to grasp the dynamic entrepreneurial relationships between people, institutions, organizations, natural resources and attributes in regional economies. The book introduces a new paradigm for studying entrepreneurship that emphasizes interconnectedness and system-level change. Advancing Entrepreneurial Ecosystems Research is a valuable resource for scholars and students of business and management, economic geography and entrepreneurship. Policymakers, practitioners and consultants in entrepreneurship and organizational systems seeking evidence-based techniques to inform their work will also greatly benefit from the insights in this book"--
