Book excerpt: The Metaverse, an expanding digital space, is at the forefront of a technological revolution that will redefine how we interact with the digital world. Yet, as this fascinating landscape evolves, it presents an array of complex challenges, particularly in the realm of entrepreneurship. The current literature on Metaverse entrepreneurship is notably lacking, leaving a void in our understanding of the Metaverse's potential and the role of entrepreneurs within it. Critical questions about the emergence of entrepreneurial ecosystems, the evolution of entrepreneurship frontiers, and the impact of innovation and creativity within the Metaverse remain largely unanswered. Entrepreneurship and Creativity in the Metaverse serves as a guide to comprehending and harnessing the Metaverse's vast potential. As a space with fewer limitations than the physical world, creativity and entrepreneurship have immense potential to flourish within the Metaverse. It provides a much-needed roadmap for scholars, entrepreneurs, educators, industry experts, and policymakers to navigate this uncharted territory and thrive within it.

Book The Oxford Handbook of Creativity  Innovation  and Entrepreneurship

Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Creativity Innovation and Entrepreneurship written by Christina Ellen Shalley and published by Oxford Library of Psychology. This book was released on 2015 with total page 561 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Creativity can be viewed as the first stage of the overall innovation process, an important dimension of the entrepreneurship and new venture creation processes, and as such, it is considered to be a cornerstone of organizational competitiveness in this global, knowledge-based economy. Research on creativity has increasingly become multilevel, with most work conducted at the individual or team level of analysis. At the same time, there is a large body of research being conducted at the organizational level of analysis on innovation, and there has been a significant amount of entrepreneurship research at the individual level, with an increasing focus on organizational entrepreneurship. However, these three research streams have developed independently, and there has been very little knowledge transfer between the three areas. Because entrepreneurship is often said to be a process that is required to convert innovation into business ventures that will deliver benefits to stakeholders, it is typically driven by an individual or small group of individuals. Creativity research, innovation research, and entrepreneurship research have the potential to inform each other, enriching our knowledge of each area, particularly with regard to the cognitive processes and behaviors that are most effective. This Handbook includes contributions from the leading scholars in these three research areas, who integrate contemporary research findings on organizational creativity, innovation, and entrepreneurship and provide fruitful new research directions."

Book The Routledge Companion to International Management Education

Download or read book The Routledge Companion to International Management Education written by Denise Tsang and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-19 with total page 435 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Crises and scandals in the world of international management have brought a new spotlight onto how the subject is taught, studied and understood. There has been a plethora of literature on international management, but a lack of focus on how international management education (IME) can be shaped to respond to existing and future global business challenges. The Routledge Companion to International Management Education gathers together contributors from academia, industry and university administration involved in IME, to: introduce the domain of IME; describe the emerging state in new geographical areas; discuss the major issues and debates revolving around IME; explore the linkage of technology and international management, and shed light on the future of IME. The diverse background of the contributors provides a global perspective that challenges the dominant Anglo-American view, with up-to-date specific insights originating from their indigenous view points, which has often been neglected and inadequately covered. The volume answers important questions, such as: Do we need a vision in IME? What is the current state of IME? How has IME grown in emerging market segments? What roles does technology play in its recent development? The volume provides thought-provoking reading for educators, administrators, policy makers, human resources professionals and researchers. It will also give future international management students a glimpse of IME from a global inside-out perspective.
