This book proposes a comprehensive analysis of the existing schools of
thought on technology-driven entrepreneurship to point out the process-based nature of this phenomenon. It explores whether entrepreneurship can be
learned and examines the main processes that help influence entrepreneurial
mind-sets. In the current economic landscape, technology-driven
entrepreneurship is the driving force behind national economies and entrepreneurial
societies. It is the engine of innovation, job creation, productivity and
economic growth, bringing benefits both at the level of the individual and of
the society and promoting sustainable smart growth and development. This
book provides a comprehensive view of “how” entrepreneurs and future
entrepreneurs learn and develop their business ventures in a wider environment.
Moreover, it discusses
issues concerning setting up the
suitable entrepreneurial environments, processes, values and policies to
encourage and foster individual entrepreneurial aptitudes. It also explores practices for
developing technology-driven entrepreneurship in a European context as well as
in emerging regions.
