Abstract: Abstract Steyaert and Katz seek to reclaim, in a geographical sense, the space where entrepreneurship occurs. This framing opens the door to an intriguing dialog of possibilities where entrepreneurship entrepreneurship dimensionsis outlined and re-framed within three dimensions; geographical, discursive, and social. The geographical dimension entrepreneurship dimensionsgeographical dimensionreterritorialize entrepreneurship in a series of spatial categories that are independent yet nested. Accordingly, they place nations and regions on one hand while on the other one neighborhoods and circles are considered. The discursive dimension ientrepreneurship dimensionsdiscursive dimensions a geopolitical framework that considers the multidimensionality of entrepreneurship rather than a sole economic narrative. As such, other discourses like the cultural, ecological, and civic ones are also reflected besides the economic one. The social dimension social dimensionsocial dimensionfocuses on entrepreneurship as a social process in itself. Thus, it changes the focus from the exceptional individual into the everyday developments enacted by ordinary people orchestrating entrepreneurship as a local process.
