Enterprise and entrepreneurship is of strong interest to
policy-makers because new and small firms can be a key contributor
to job and wealth creation. However this contribution varies
spatially, with some areas in a country having new firm formation
rates that are up to three or four times higher than others. The
vast majority of these new firms begin in the geographical area in
which the founder lives, works or was born emphasising that
entrepreneurship is a local event. The book documents a diversity
of research approaches to examining the regional determinants of
entrepreneurship in countries as contrasting as India and Sweden.
The Editors call is for scholars to better understand the long run
factors that influence enterprise at the local and regional level.
For policy makers the Editors challenge is for them to be much
clearer about the targets for their policies. Is it new firms, new
jobs, productivity and does it matter where these targets are
delivered? This book was published as a special issue of Regional
Studies.
