- Summary:
- "Organizations arise from entrepreneurial action, yet, as they scale, they can struggle to retain their entrepreneurial nature. Corporate Accelerators enable organizations to reignite this entrepreneurial spirit. In this insightful book, Raj Krishnan Shankar examines the emerging phenomenon of corporate accelerators and sets a provocative and productive research agenda for future work in this growing area. After reviewing existing literature from both scholarly and practitioner worlds, the author identifies research possibilities to deepen our understanding of the phenomenon, resulting in a comprehensive agenda that situates different types of accelerators within broader entrepreneurial and innovation ecosystems. The book also presents indicative theoretical lenses and research methods ideal for use in this novel setting. Doctoral students, scholars, practitioners, and policymakers interested in entrepreneurship, innovation and strategic management will find this book a compelling read"-- Provided by publisher.
