From this premise, the authors argue that the ideal environment for new venture creation is a form of ?experimental laboratory,? a community of innovators where ideas are generated, shared, and refined; experiments are encouraged; and which in itself serves as a test environment for those ideas and experiments.  This environment is quite different from the traditional ?incubator,? which may impose the disciplines of the established firm too early in the development of the new venture. Featuring case examples of start-ups across a wide spectrum of industries, from Wikipedia to Ryanair, the authors explore the qualities of successful innovation, including a high tolerance of risk and unpredictability and commitment to building knowledge enterprises that value intangible assets. This volume is a clarion call to those in academia, enterprise, and government who seek to work together to promote innovation and entrepreneurship, with a stark message for academic institutions: engage or be left behind. 410 0$aInnovation, Technology, and Knowledge Management,$x2197-5698 606 $aVenture capital 606 $aManagement science 615 0$aVenture capital. 615 0$aManagement science. 676 $a338.04 701 $aCurley$b Martin$01062966 701 $aFormica$b Piero$089123 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910739431103321 996 $aThe experimental nature of new venture creation$94187802 997 $aUNINA
