Sommario/riassunto

In recent years, issues relating to education, training and the development of entrepreneurs and/or their workforce have climbed steadily toward the top of government agenda and currently represent



a high priority imperative for government policy throughout the industrially developed and developing world. The twelve contributions included in this e-book are indicative of the richness and variety of subtopics that represent the subject area. They consolidate conceptual and contextual growth in this field of entrepreneurship research.
