New Working Paper “Struggling with Entrepreneurial Ecosystems”.

Custom Field Value: September 16, 2024

In this new paper I critically discuss the common understanding of ‚entrepreneurial ecosystems‘. In particular, three propositions are made for further development of the concept. First, it is argued that entrepreneurial ecosystems should be regarded a part of the regional innovation system. Second, the scope of the concept should be expanded beyond high-performance start-ups and their founders to include the entire universe of ‘everyday’ entrepreneurship. Third, the concept should account for the incumbent firms and the regional workforce. http://zs.thulb.uni-jena.de/receive/jportal_jparticle_01398293
