Smart watches, autonomous vehicles, and talking robots are now an everyday part of life for many regions of the world. The digital revolution has now permeated nearly every facet of our existence. This surge in technological advancement has ushered in what economists term an "innovation economy." In this era, the synergy between technology and business intelligence propels groundbreaking innovations, fostering entrepreneurial ventures across various sectors. These ventures encompass an array of industries, including agriculture, fast-moving consumer goods, hospitality, cultural and indigenous products, to name just a few. While these entrepreneurial endeavors bring forth creativity and contribute to circular economies within communities, not all manage to navigate the challenging environment successfully.

By dissecting various types of organizations, from small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to technology-based startups like Fintech, digital marketing, and community-driven initiatives, this book paints a vivid picture of the entrepreneurial ecosystem. It delves deep into the symbiotic relationship between local wisdom and innovation, shedding light on how entrepreneurs can seize opportunities presented by disruptive and unpredictable phenomena.

This book attempts to advance critical knowledge and practices for fostering a variety of entrepreneurship at a city level. The book aims to connect scholarship and policy practice in two disciplines: Urban Studies and Entrepreneurship. The book has included contributions from developed, emerging, and developing countries. The chapters are clubbed under five main sections; I. Startups and Entrepreneurial Opportunities, II. Knowledge Spillover, III. Social and Bureaucratic Entrepreneurialism, IV. Demography and Informal Entrepreneurs V. Perspectives from Emerging and Developing Economies. In this regard, the book explores a number of questions, such as: what are the important varieties of entrepreneurship, how can they be observed and measured, and how does each variety emerge and operate under various conditions of infrastructure and opportunity? Which type(s) of entrepreneurship should a city prefer? What can cities do to stimulate desirable forms of entrepreneurship or is it more of a spontaneous phenomenon? Why do policies that enhance entrepreneurship in some contexts seem instead to promote crony capitalism and rent-seeking in other contexts? Should cities focus on growing their own entrepreneurs and entrepreneurial enterprises or on luring them from other cities and countries? How can a collective action in a city promote (or hinder) entrepreneurship? The contributions in the present volume address head-on these questions at the intersection of urban studies, economic theory, and the practicalities of economic development and urban governance, in a genuinely global range of places and applications.
