Abstract
The market-enabling capability of government is featured in an industry analysis capturing the transformation of marine fishing to aquaculture in ways that require changes to the law and regulations, as well as private venturing initiatives. Private initiatives for innovation in the aquaculture industry are essential because of the variety of species available for a sophisticated market and a preference for seafood. Government-as-enabler for species development and product differentiation of products locally-produced as a complementary input is also important. Structural changes have been shown to be essential for ventures and entrepreneurship and can contribute to the establishment of a public-private partnership (PPP) for a Schumpeterian type of innovation. The study is another illustration of the 4th Coase Theorem.
期刊介绍:
The journal name relates to Harvard Business School''s understanding of "The Entrepreneurial Venture" (Sahlmann/Stevenson/Roberts/Bhidé), the concept of entrepreneurship not only limited to new ventures/start-ups, but further understood as the concentration of opportunity/growth/value creation regardless of company size, age or kind. Hence, IJEV addresses organisational processes surrounding these concepts: from an idea to an innovation. To bridge the gap between innovation and entrepreneurship research, IJEV emphasises implications of this new knowledge for researchers, managers, public policy makers and business educators. Topics covered include: -Opportunity: identification; recognition; creation; selection; exploitation -Growth: management of rapidly growing enterprises; control -Value creation: for owners; for customers; other stakeholders; society -Entrepreneurship and intrapreneurship -New venture creation -Management of technology and innovation -New product development and creativity -SME management -Entrepreneurial and small enterprise finance -Crowdsourcing and crowdfunding -Family business -Gender and diversity -Global entrepreneurship and internationalisation -Public policy, the economy, and the small enterprise -Business and organisational failure
