Corporate entrepreneurship is about remaking organizations; it
affects organizational cultures and systems which, in turn,
influence the magnitude, direction and content of corporate
entrepreneurship activities. This Handbook hopes to synthesize what
we know and clarify what we need to know about key issues such as
strategic renewal, innovation and venturing activities within
established companies, giving direction to future research. This
Handbook combines conceptual and empirical contributions covering a
wide gamut of theories and perspectives that include: opportunity
discovery vs. creation, the behavioral theory of the firm,
learning, human capital, agency, and dynamic capabilities. The
chapters uncover who the corporate entrepreneur is, how corporate
entrepreneurs vary from their independent counterparts, how
corporate entrepreneurship influences organizational performance,
and the effect of incremental versus radical strategic renewal
undertaken within corporate entrepreneurship on financial
performance. They also investigate what an organization learns from
corporate entrepreneurship, as well as the types of innovation that
companies gain through corporate venturing capital investments. The
diversity of authors, perspectives and foci of the chapters
highlight the growing depth and breadth of the worldwide research
on corporate entrepreneurship and the growing maturity of this
research. This book will appeal to scholars and students of
entrepreneurship and/or strategic management, as well as managers
of established firms. Contributors: S. Basu, H. Burgers, J.J.
