What is ie-scholars
ie-scholars.net is a virtual community that supports International Entrepreneurship (IE) research and education by sharing resources, expertise and knowledge on a global scale. Our hope is that this community will accelerate the development of ideas and approaches to key theoretical, methodological and conceptual issues in this emerging area of study.
We have three types of community building activities:
1) Fostering and accelerating IE research
2) IE knowledge mobilization and dissemination
3) IE community growth and enhancement
