Entrepreneurship

Entrepreneurship claims a central role in economics and management as a wellspring of industrial dynamism, innovation, and wealth creation.

Building on early contributions by scholars such as Joseph Schumpeter, Frank Knight, or William Baumol, researchers, policy makers, and managers seek to uncover the economic and personal motivations that affect entrepreneurial behavior in new ventures or established organizations, while independent and corporate venture capital increasingly drive business dynamism and growth.

The BSE Summer Forum Workshop on Entrepreneurship welcomes empirical and theoretical submissions at the cutting edge of entrepreneurship from experienced and promising young scholars in the field.

Relevant topics include, but are not limited to:

• New venture creation
• Dynamics of entrepreneurial careers
• Start-up strategy
• Entrepreneurial human capital
• Entrepreneurial finance
• Corporate entrepreneurship
• Venture capital
• Institutions and entrepreneurship
