Chapter 53 in Handbook of Top Management Teams, 2010, pp 460-468 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Intrapreneurship, or corporate entrepreneurship, involves different practices within a business which are meant to improve its capacity for innovation and response. Two aspects of the phenomenon can be distinguished: the first is internal and concerns on the one hand the processes and culture that facilitate the business’s activity, and on the other hand the internal mechanisms that allow the business to go in new directions (new business development); the external aspect concerns above all the corporate venture capital that enables the business to become a shareholder in innovative start-up companies.
