Entrepreneurial Ecosystems

Resource Acquisition, Flow and Management

280 Seiten, Hardcover

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

This book emerged from a need in the field of entrepreneurial ecosystems to link foundational theories with practical realities faced by entrepreneurs as they acquire and manage resources when creating a new firm. It also seeks to address how different agents of the entrepreneurial ecosystems interact to facilitate new venture formation. The book’s core thesis posits that a comprehensive grasp of resource dynamics, including acquisition and management and flow, is essential for cultivating sustainable entrepreneurial environments that can significantly reduce the failure rate of startups. The book seeks to provide answers to how resources within these ecosystems—financial, social, and human—are acquired and how these processes impact the success or failure of new enterprises.

Through a combination of case studies, theoretical analysis, and policy recommendations, the work distinguishes itself by integrating rigorous academic theory with practical, real-world application. This dual approach not only resolves current ambiguities regarding the roles and effects of different ecosystem participants, but also reveals the frequently overlooked narratives of interdependence and collaboration that are crucial for fostering sustainable entrepreneurial settings.
