Abstract

This book has two cornerstones. The first is that entrepreneurship has emerged as a bonafide focus of public policy, particularly with respect to economic growth and employment creation. For example, the primary role played by entrepreneurship was identified by Romano Prodi during his tenure as President of the European Commission, ‘Our lacunae in the field of entrepreneurship needs to be taken seriously because there is mounting evidence that the key to economic growth and productivity improvements lies in the entrepreneurial capacity of an economy’ (Prodi, 2002, p. 1).
