Entrepreneurship in Developing and Emerging Economies

An engaging book that introduces students to the 'practice' of entrepreneurship in emerging and developing economies.

Entrepreneurship in Developing and Emerging Economies presents alternative pathways to students for 'practicing' (as opposed to 'just learning' about) enterprise and entrepreneurship. The content is made approachable, accessible and relatable, and 'no' prior learning is expected.

The book uses non-technical language and introduces over 50 illustrative cases on enterprise and entrepreneurship from developing and emerging economies, aiding students to gain insights into the pre-start-up, start-up and growth phases of the entrepreneurial process. These phases are mapped into the three major sections―The Practices of Entrepreneurship, Enterprise Design and Start-up Enterprise Management. Each chapter moves 'entrepreneurial thinking' forward, helping students practice what they learn, retain new knowledge and understand the requirements to create new ventures and do business in an developing and emerging economy context.
