This book features latest research insights into the study of the entrepreneurial ecosystem.
The focus is on understanding its influence on the development of socially and physically
defined 'places' and how these factors are related with each other. The book argues that
regardless of how the concept of a 'place' is defined be it cities regions nations or
otherwise the impact of new technologies will influence much of our business social and
economic landscapes. Evidently there is an increasing pressure on 'places' to embrace new
opportunities for strategic development and confront complacency. The solution may very well be
in creating and sustaining entrepreneurial ecosystems where entrepreneurial action thrives and
innovation drives the new economy.
