Abstract

Economic inequality continues to contribute to political and social instability around the world. This instability stifles development and results in widening the wealth gap between the "haves" and "have nots," further eroding stability. It has been argued that entrepreneurship is a prime contributor to this vicious cycle. Using Entrepreneurship and Social Innovation to Mitigate Wealth Inequality contends that this is only true when the opportunity for entrepreneurship is limited to a few. The authors maintain that when entrepreneurship is open to anyone who is properly motivated, innovative, and has a goal of growth for their enterprise, it helps build wealth for a greater number of people. The concept of "social entrepreneurship" is introduced, where entrepreneurship becomes a vehicle for explicitly addressing community-based economic and social challenges using markets. The book uses examples of entrepreneurial projects and programs that have attempted to address inequality to discuss entrepreneurship as an economic development strategy and its role in addressing the challenges of economic inequality. It advocates thinking and acting systemically, creating and sustaining entrepreneurial support ecosystems, in order to generate the synergy required to scale-up development and transform our economies and provides a distinctive perspective on a pressing social and economic issue, with significant implications for the future of the United States and the world.

Abstract

Migration, mobility, and globalization are transforming ways of working and living. Business activities, relationships and a sense of belonging are often not tied to any one place. This book explores biographies of highly mobile startup founders who often run startups that have been called "born global". It describes how they move, how they orientate and perceive themselves, and how migration and mobility play a role beyond the physical act of 'moving'. Presenting current ethnographic research, the book critically discusses approaches in migration and mobility studies and the research field of the "migration of the highly skilled".

Abstract

This open access book focuses on explaining differences amongst organizations regarding various attributes, forms, and outcomes. By focusing on the how of new venture creation and management to produce well-established organizations, the authors aim to increase our understanding of the antecedents of most management research assumptions. New ventures are the source of most newly created jobs generated in an economy, new industries and markets, innovative products and services, and new solutions to economic, social, and environmental problems. However, most management research assumes a well-established organization as the starting point of their theorizing. Building on the notion of guided attention, it details how entrepreneurs can allocate their transient attention to identify potential opportunities from environmental change and how entrepreneurs allocate their sustained attention to form beliefs about radical and incremental opportunities requiring entrepreneurial action.

Abstract

Het lijdt weinig twijfel dat de maatschappij door een grote transformatie gaat, gedreven door digitalisering. Startups spelen hier een hoofdrol in. Of we het nu willen of niet, je kunt niet meer om startups heen. Ze zijn met voorsprong de kenmerkende bedrijfsvorm van dit tijdperk waarin smartphones en tablets domineren. Door de hele hype die momenteel rond startups hangt, lijkt het een tijdelijk fenomeen waarvan sommigen hopen dat het wel zal overwaaien. Maar is dat wel zo? Of blijven ze de traditionele bedrijfsmodellen aan de lopende band ondermijnen ?Dit boek ontsluiert de boeiende wereld van startups en geeft een uitgebreid overzicht van het landschap in België. Het geeft een antwoord op wat startups nu precies zijn en waar ze vandaan komen. Het is niet alleen bestemd voor iedereen die te maken heeft of geïnteresseerd is in startups, maar ook voor zij die willen weten in welke richting de economie evolueert. Het neemt de lezer mee op een tocht van verwondering en beleving. Het geeft een antwoord op de vraag waarom startups overal te vinden zijn, het lijkt wel een nieuwe gold rush; wat er achter het door de ene bewonderde en door de andere gevreesde concept schuilgaat; waarom er eenhoorns rondlopen in deze fantasiewereld; en waarom deze nieuwe helden eeuwig jong lijken te blijven.http://bussinesandeconomics.diekeure.be

Abstract

Start-ups, like sailing vessels, do not travel in straight lines. The wind and the waves of the real world move the ship, and your start-up, in unpredictable ways. This book is designed to give you an analytical set of tools to help you navigate your start-up or corporate innovation through the murky waters of real life. Every business has failures. No business succeeds without some change of plan. Navigating Your Way to Start-up Success will show you how to create a start-up designed to test its assumptions so those that are not worthy fail-often and fast. This book builds on modern start-up management techniques like Agile and Lean to bring an analytical and quantitative framework to the most common start-up failures. Navigating through those failures means finding your way to start-up success.

Abstract

Kort na de e-commerce zet de m-commerce zich meer en meer door als dé nieuwe trend. Consumenten maken meer en meer gebruik van hun smartphone of tablet om aankopen te verrichten. Ondernemingen – en dan vooral de vele nieuwe spelers op de markt – pikken graag hun graantje mee. Voorbeelden zijn er reeds in overvloed:- studenten blijven thuis en bestellen via een app wat ze wensen te eten. Hun maaltijd wordt zelfs aan de deur geleverd;- de consument checkt dagelijks zijn rekening via de app van zijn bank en verricht zo ook zijn overschrijvingen;- de Bancontact-app laat toe om via een smartphone betalingen te ontvangen of uit te voeren, zelfs tussen consumenten onderling;- een toerist huurt via de Airbnb-app een kamer voor zijn volgende reis;- klantenkaarten worden gedigitaliseerd en via een app en QR-code kan men punten sparen …Bij al deze praktijkvoorbeelden rijzen evenveel juridische vragen. Dit boek wil hierop een antwoord geven, of het nu gaat om een consument die zijn rechten wil kennen of een start-up die wil weten welke wettelijke plichten op hem rusten en welke fiscale voordelen aan m-commerce verbonden zijn.Dit boek bevat bijdragen van Dominique Blommaert, Nico Demeyere, Anne Demelenne, Bart Devoldere, Hervé Jacquemin, Andy Neuteleers, Ivo Van Bulck, Johan Vandendriessche, Ellen Vandingenen en Johan Vannerom.

Abstract

The subject of economic valorisation has become a current topic and the idea that culture can be considered a factor of economic production, able to generate wealth, appears to have been generally accepted. The book consists of a series of essays about the economic valorisation of the cultural, artistic and environmental heritage of the art city of Florence using a business economics approach and will appeal to scholars and researchers focusing on the cultural economics and managerial economics of art and to practitioners in the cultural sector and policy makers.
