Book Description
Despite the growing evidence on the importance of the neighbourhood, entrepreneurship studies have largely neglected the role of neighbourhoods. This book addresses the nexus between entrepreneurship, neighbourhoods and communities, confirming not only the importance of ‘the local’ in entrepreneurship, but also filling huge gaps in the knowledge base regarding this tripartite relationship.

Book Description
The economy of poverty is beyond having enough material possessions or income for a person’s needs. Poverty has been the challenge for many countries, economies and communities. With the rapid developments of ‘poverty elimination’ efforts, the quest for understanding more about the economy of poverty is increasing from both academics and practitioners of different speciality. This project foresight and shapes the future poverty economy. The book shows how to eliminate poverty and human inequalities that limit many people from accessing vital resources. This is highly essential, if we want future generations to be more resilient and ready for the coming threats of the different forms of poverty. In ‘Shaping the Future of Poverty Economy’, Dr Buheji & Dr Ahmed explore how the current and future types of poverty can bring in opportunities towards major complicated socio-economic solutions. The Inspiration Labs set the framework in how to deal with all the rising situations of poverty, not just to eliminate the current extreme ones. The book sees ‘poverty elimination’ from different perspectives with a focus on poverty as an issue that reflects a failure in realising the human wealth and the profound knowledge accumulated in today and future poverty.

Book Description
This book explores how entrepreneurial networks provide the basis for individuals and firms to compete based on knowledge asymmetries. This book states that this is crucial in the increasingly interdependent world where social capital influences potential market performance. This edited book focuses on future trends regarding entrepreneurial networks in terms of social, cultural and market connections thereby bridging the entrepreneurship, strategy and network literature. This book provides a practical way to capture market changes as networks evolve to a more digital format. The impact of innovation and strategy on these market developments will be discussed in each chapter as a way to understand performance.

Book Description
As a result of economic transitions and several societal developments over the past 50 years, residential neighbourhoods have developed from being places where people predominantly live into places where people also work. A growing number of small- and medium-sized firms are located in residential neighbourhoods, many of which are home-based. Triggered by relatively high levels of turbulence in residential neighbourhoods and inter-locality variation in firm survival, firm growth and firm relocation, this study concerned whether and how neighbourhood characteristics influence the success of local firms and the strategic options of their entrepreneurs. The research demonstrates that some ‘neighbourhood effects’ on firm success and strategy do exist, especially for the growing group of solo entrepreneurs and firms in locally-oriented sectors. In particular the social context in which entrepreneurs are embedded matters, as cohesive neighbourhoods trigger both firm growth and entrepreneurial investments. Furthermore, the accumulation of liveability-related problems in disadvantaged neighbourhoods seems to contribute to an unfavourable business climate.

Book Description
As the breadth and empirical diversity of entrepreneurship research have increased rapidly during the last decade, the quest to find a "one-size-fits-all" general theory of entrepreneurship has given way to a growing appreciation for the importance of contexts. This promises to improve both the practical relevance and the theoretical rigor of research in this field. Entrepreneurship means different things to different people at different times and in different places and both its causes and its consequences likewise vary. For example, for some people entrepreneurship can be a glorious path to emancipation, while for others it can represent the yoke tethering them to the burdens of overwork and drudgery. For some communities it can drive renaissance and vibrancy while for others it allows only bare survival. In this book, we assess and attempt to push forward contemporary conceptualizations of contexts that matter for entrepreneurship, pointing in particular to opportunities generating new insights by attending to contexts in novel or underexplored ways. This book shows that the ongoing contextualization of entrepreneurship research should not simply generate a proliferation of unique theories – one for every context – but can instead result in better theory construction, testing and understanding of boundary conditions, thereby leading us to richer and more profound understanding of entrepreneurship across its many forms. Contextualizing Entrepreneurship Theory will critically review the current debate and existing literature on contexts and entrepreneurship and use this to synthesize new theoretical and methodological frameworks that point to important directions for future research.
