Financiing Entrepreneurship and Innovation in Emerging Markets

The originality in Financing Entrepreneurship and Innovation in Emerging Markets is its link between macro data on innovation and data on micro-entrepreneurial processes and venture capital supply. The authors bring together two disparate fields of research and thinking-innovation and entrepreneurship on the one hand and economics on the other-to illuminate the sophistication with which domestic companies compete and the quality of the business environment in which entrepreneurial firms operate. Its broad scope and firm linkages between processes at different levels leapfrog research topics. For those investigating entrepreneurship and innovation in the early stages of economic development, this book demonstrates how micro and macro foundations of productivity, and hence economic growth and development, are inextricably intertwined. Combines macro and micro perspectives on innovation processes, revealing how economic growth and development are inextricably intertwinedUses case studies to portray the entrepreneurial firm and its role in accelerating the speed of innovation and dissemination of new technologies, thus helping to increase a country's competitive edge in the global marketIdentifies common flaws undermining public venture programs, poor design, a lack of understanding for the entrepreneurial process, and implementation problems, and so describes better programs in the future INDICE: 1.
