Description
Book SynopsisTrade Review‘Governments world-wide are seeking to encourage the growth of new ventures. Making this task harder is the fact that entrepreneurship is undoubtedly an “increasing returns” activity: the presence of nearby high-growth ventures increases the innovation and success of a new business. This volume presents a fascinating series of country-specific “case studies” that show the potential and challenges associated with growing entrepreneurial clusters.’ -- Josh Lerner, Harvard Business School, US
‘Professor Jerome Engel has updated, expanded, and extended his Clusters of Innovation framework in this new book. There are fresh ideas about culture and behavior in these clusters. There are new regions included. And there is an extension to a non-geographic cluster built around a business model instead of a location. Anyone wishing to gain new insights into what makes the Silicon Valley cluster of innovation work will find this new volume an essential resource.’ -- Henry Chesbrough, University of California, Berkeley, US and Luiss University, Rome, Italy
‘How do entrepreneurs, risk capital and corporate Innovation strategy come together to form an innovation cluster? Clusters of Innovation in the Age of Disruption

Insightful, intuitive and intelligent – Clusters of Innovation in the Age of Disruption is a guide to creating value out of chaos.’ -- Steve Blank, Stanford University, US
