The chapters demonstrate several dimensions of the entrepreneurial processes, such as imagination, innovation, calculated risk taking, alertness to opportunities, opportunity identification, as well as resource assemblage and leverage to exploit an opportunity - all in a criminal context. Illegal methods used by entrepreneurs to identify solutions to problems that lead to the generation of business opportunities are illustrated. Moreover, methods used by criminal entrepreneurs to circumvent barriers to the entrepreneurial process and business developments are highlighted. Issues relating to the formation of crimino-entrepreneurial ventures are critically discussed. Emerging issues relating to illegal corporate entrepreneurship are illustrated. 410 0$aContemporary issues in entrepreneurship research ;$vv. 5. 606 $aBusiness & Economics$xEntrepreneurship$2bisacsh 606 $aEntrepreneurship$2bicssc 606 $aOrganized crime 606 $aEntrepreneurship 606 $aBusiness enterprises$xCorrupt practices 615 7$aBusiness & Economics$xEntrepreneurship. 615 7$aEntrepreneurship. 615 0$aOrganized crime. 615 0$aEntrepreneurship. 615 0$aBusiness enterprises$xCorrupt practices. 676 $a364.04199999999997 701 $aMcElwee$b Gerard$0782626 701 $aSmith$b Robert$083022 712 02$aInstitute for Small Business and Entrepreneurship (Great Britain) 801 0$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910797256603321 996 $aExploring criminal and illegal enterprise$93857406 997 $aUNINA
