Download or read book Kenyan Entrepreneurship written by Jared Ongong'a and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2010-10 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book covers the informal sector in Kenya from its formative stage up to the current form. Before its recognition by the government, the sector was treated as a dumping ground for those who could not be employed in the formal sector of the economy. The municipal authorities fought these entrepreneurs in all the major urban centres of the country. The turning point came in the mid 1980s when the country s second president Daniel T. Moi met and agreed to provide formal sheds within Nairobi and later on in all major urban centres for their operations. Currently, the sessional papers provide for their growth, programmes as well as national government budgetary allocation. The recommendations in the book have been partially included in much of the informal sector debates. This book is important for the university students pursuing industralization programmes especially for the developing economies.

This book was released on 2016-10-20 with total page 443 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The informal economy represents a significant share of output and employment in many developing countries. Yet little is known about this hidden engine of innovation. This pioneering study addresses some crucial questions, including: what is the role of the informal sector in economic development? How does innovation occur in the informal economy? How does it spread, who are the key actors and what impacts does it have? How do inventors and entrepreneurs in the informal economy reap benefits from their innovations? What stops informal sector innovation from scaling up? How can informal sector innovation in developing countries be measured? And what policies might support informal sector innovation and improve its impacts? This book will stimulate further work on this crucial but under-researched subject. As well as rich empirical evidence from several groundbreaking studies, it includes conceptual and methodological tools and policy recommendations to help researchers and policy-makers understand innovation in the informal economy.
