Summary:
Based on a workshop held at Case Western Reserve University, this collection examines the best practices and problematic strategies for joint efforts by governments, industries, and universities to promote economic development in the U.S through entrepreneurship. The nine papers analyze high technology companies as university spin-offs, how state financial aid affects brain drain, cluster-based planning in the new economy, and the contribution of women and minority entrepreneurs. Many of the chapters are followed by a commentary from a practitioner in that field.
