Innovation and Entrepreneurship in the Global Economy

Edited by Charlie Karlsson (), Urban Gråsjö () and Sofia Wixe

in Books from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: Innovation and entrepreneurship are the prime drivers in the global economy. This scholarly book identifies some of the key forces behind innovation and entrepreneurship at the same time as it closes the gap between science and technology R&D, innovation, entrepreneurship, productivity growth, and internationalization. The expert contributions explore the underlying forces and add substantial theoretical and empirical knowledge to the current state-of-the-art in several research fields including the economics of innovation and entrepreneurship, regional economics, economic geography and international economics.
