About this ebook

Technology entrepreneurship refers to business activities that are based on new scientific insights and new technical developments. It describes the process by which enterprising teams and individuals convert new technical knowledge into products and services. It encompasses entrepreneurial pursuits in all fields of engineering and science where progress opens novel ways of creating value. Often these activities are based on intellectual property, although it may also make sense to consciously pursue an open technology strategy. Entrepreneurial activities in these domains lead to ventures with specific characteristics.

Technology Entrepreneurship in Theory and Practice compiles the essential research knowledge about principles and practices in technology entrepreneurship. Systematically presenting theory and practice for entrepreneurs coming from an engineering or scientific background, the authors assemble a comprehensive overview of the subject and enhance it with their expert viewpoints. The book compiles and summarizes available knowledge and approaches to enable engineers and scientists to develop entrepreneurial initiatives.

Technology Entrepreneurship in Theory and Practice will find an audience among technology entrepreneurs, engineers and scientists, entrepreneurship educators, executives, consultants, and policymakers worldwide.
