The 14 essays in this volume consider the role of education, research, context, and strategy in the entrepreneurship process, from the development of new entrepreneurial activity, to the
shaping of this activity, to the growth of entrepreneurial projects. European business scholars discuss the role of education and cognitive research in helping to develop entrepreneurship, with
discussion of a doctoral program, evaluating educational programs, validating an entrepreneurial intention questionnaire, and the role of developmental networks in enhancing behavioral and
cognitive competences; the contexts of cultural values, universities, and teams; innovative strategies, including a corporate strategy, the service business and strategic human resource
management, and the development of absorptive and adaptive capabilities; and the joint influence of context and strategy, through case studies of music festivals in Norway, African small and
medium enterprise clusters, mature industries, and the social economy. Annotation ©2015 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
