Elsner deduces critical factors that impact corporate involvement in business accelerators as a strategy to adapt internal innovation processes. Based on insights from the aerospace industry he develops a new model for corporate learning that enables accelerator programs to better promote the development of innovations at corporate level.

Download or read book Building a Better Chicago written by Teresa Irene Gonzales and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2021-06-29 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How local Black and Brown communities can resist gentrification and fight for their interests Despite promises from politicians, nonprofits, and government agencies, Chicago’s most disadvantaged neighborhoods remain plagued by poverty, failing schools, and gang activity. In Building a Better Chicago, Teresa Irene Gonzales shows us how, and why, these promises have gone unfulfilled, revealing tensions between neighborhood residents and the institutions that claim to represent them. Focusing on Little Village, the largest Mexican immigrant community in the Midwest, and Greater Englewood, a predominantly Black neighborhood, Gonzales gives us an on-the-ground look at Chicago’s inner city. She shows us how philanthropists, nonprofits, and government agencies struggle for power and control—often against the interests of residents themselves—with the result of further marginalizing the communities of color they seek to help. But Gonzales also shows how these communities have advocated for themselves and demanded accountability from the politicians and agencies in their midst. Building a Better Chicago explores the many high-stakes battles taking place on the streets of Chicago, illuminating a more promising pathway to empowering communities of color in the twenty-first century.

Download or read book Open Innovation written by Pascal Latouche and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2020-10-29 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to explicitly describe the daily interactions that need to be implemented to transform these One To One, or One to Many, interactions into tangible (business partnerships) and intangible (relationship satisfaction) value. Through my experience, I will try to give an account of the words and behaviour of the crossed protagonists during all these years. My observations will allow to fully understand the perspectives that everyone gives themselves in interactions, in order to better understand the perceptions that result from them. It is the reality of the interactions themselves that will be exposed in order to know how to make the most of them.

Download or read book Nascent Entrepreneurship and Learning written by Mine Karataş-Özkan and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work by Karata -Özkan and Chell provide fresh insights on entrepreneurial learning and the entrepreneurship process. Employing a well informed social constructivist perspective, it combines theory with a richly grounded empirical analysis at three distinct but inter-related levels; the micro, the mesa, all set in the macro context of the enterprise culture. A strength of the work is the multiple levels of analysis which sheds new light on entrepreneurial learning as part of the entrepreneurial process. The result is a processual view that captures, conceptualises and explains the transitive process of becoming an entrepreneur. Alistair R. Anderson, The Robert Gordon University, UK In this book Karata -Özkan and Chell show great clarity in dealing with a range of complex issues. They articulate these in a manner which makes them interesting and comprehensible and in a fashion which impressively interweaves theory, practice and method. Sarah L. Jack, Lancaster University, UK This informative book examines the process of nascent entrepreneurship from a learning perspective. It offers a multi-layered framework of nascent entrepreneurship through an inter-disciplinary approach and sound application of Bourdieu s conceptual tools and also by generating practical insights for nascent entrepreneurs, enterprise educators and mentors. Supported by an empirical investigation of two case studies, the authors argue that it is not sufficient to study nascent entrepreneurship and concurrent process of entrepreneurial learning at just the individual (entrepreneur) or collective (team or organisational) level and examine the socio-behavioural aspects of learning; but that entrepreneurial learning should be understood by inter-relating personal (micro), relational (meso) and macro-contextual aspects of nascent entrepreneurship. The comprehensive coverage of entrepreneurship theory and research will be of significant value for scholars, researchers and students in the field.
Download or read book The Life Cycle of New Ventures written by Candida G. Brush and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The contributors to this book provide a cross-national comparison of venture emergence, newness and growth. Their chapters examine the influences of cultural, social and economic factors on venture development, compare the approaches of entrepreneurs who move from idea to emerging organization, and investigate acquisition and development of resources in growth and performance. The authors consider important issues in new ventures research such as technology commercialization, management team development, and influence of equity funding. While its particular focus is on Norway and the US, the book offers broad and intriguing contributions with regard to the emergence and growth of knowledge based firms in developed economies, and has implications for both direct and indirect government policy with regard to stimulating the formation and development of knowledge based firms. Scholars and students of entrepreneurship, international studies and economics, policymakers, international business experts and economic development specialists will find this rigorous analysis of the utmost importance.
