Advances in Entrepreneurship (Hardcover)

This important three-volume collection focuses upon several major themes relating to the entrepreneur, the organisation and the environment for entrepreneurship. It includes articles that focus upon opportunity recognition and exploitation, creativity, risk and uncertainty, ability based on skills, competencies and knowledge, market adjustment, innovation and the ability to make calculated judgements. It makes an important distinction between the motivations, characteristics, roles and contributions of different types of entrepreneurs. The articles are organised into fourteen sections, namely: entrepreneurship theory; methodological issues; entrepreneurial opportunity recognition and information search; finance for entrepreneurs; entrepreneurial careers; types of entrepreneurs; environments for venture creation and development; venture growth and performance; organisation closure, internationalisation; corporate venturing; family firms; technology-based firms; and franchising. This very comprehensive three volume set will be essential reading for policymakers, practitioners, academics and students of entrepreneurship.
