Research confirms that entrepreneurship and innovation have been recognized as critical drivers of sustainable economic development and competitive advantage. During the Pandemic, the HIS-E was one of the few programs that continued to assist the local startups and develop an entrepreneurial mindset. HIS-E maintained quality and innovative entrepreneurship education and community outreach by transitioning to a virtual platform of collaboration. Indeed, some of these quality entrepreneurship practice components include experiential learning, collaboration across disciplines, and the infusion of sustainability and innovation into the curriculum. Finally, I address important implications, challenges, and learning outcomes for stakeholders interested in replicating this Model to stimulate entrepreneurial activity.","PeriodicalId":246224,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the International Council for Small Business","volume":"23 6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128815520","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We catalog 36 distinct initiatives addressing information, education and training, trade mobility, and financial aspects, and the endeavor of several countries to establish such responses, not as piecemeal interventions, but cohesive programs intended to transform the export sector. Further, we highlight how the far-reaching impact of the pandemic creates homogeneity in exporter needs, negating distributional challenges. The all-inclusive nature of the responses, and the involvement and interest of multiple stakeholders, suggests that instead of giving up on globalization, global commerce is doubling down.","PeriodicalId":246224,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the International Council for Small Business","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127798590","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There is a gap between the collateral requirements of financial institutions (FIs) and what SMEs are able to provide. Using data gathered from FIs and 388 SMEs in the Greater Accra Region of Ghana, we show that landed property is mostly required by FIs, while personal guarantees, limited savings, and equipment are the top-ranked forms of security SMEs are able to use. The implication is for FIs to include approaches, such as close relationship banking, guarantees, and insurance over assets as a means to accept SMEs’ collateral and extend financing to them for their mutual benefit.","PeriodicalId":246224,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the International Council for Small Business","volume":"80 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131843105","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nowadays, it is more common that many private and public initiatives aim to boost entrepreneurship based on science and technology. Some empirical evidence demonstrates that males present higher entrepreneurial intention levels than women. This research seeks to explore the gender role in academic entrepreneurial intention. We study 593 responses from business accelerator program participants linked to higher education institutions and public research centers in Mexico. To analyze the data, we set up structural equation modeling. Preliminary results show a gender effect on entrepreneurial intention. Male academics are more likely to be academic entrepreneurs. Also, we found that academics with higher entrepreneurial experience are more likely to be entrepreneurs regardless of gender. Preliminary findings provide insights for scholars and practitioners in establishing policies that help promote entrepreneurial behavior within academics, especially women.","PeriodicalId":246224,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the International Council for Small Business","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132882597","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, small businesses are plagued by low survival rates, partly due to inexperienced management and poor financial planning among other issues and challenges. This article considers the impact of corporate governance on long-term survival of small businesses in Canada. Presented is the lens of two opposing theories of corporate governance (stakeholder and resource dependency) that, if viewed together, help explain the importance of corporate governance and how the implementation of some corporate governance principles and frameworks can help increase the chances of survival of small businesses.","PeriodicalId":246224,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the International Council for Small Business","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132416293","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Drawing from the positive psychology literature, we propose that PsyCap resources impact firm performance through entrepreneurs’ innovative behavior during uncertainty. Drawing from the broaden-and-build theory, we argue that entrepreneurs could develop their state-like psychological resources to achieve superior performance and thus mitigate the impact of exogenous shocks and overcome major crises such as the current COVID-19 pandemic. Our propositions could provide helpful insights to practitioners, policy makers, and academics. By investigating the proposed relationships in our conceptual model, our study offers the opportunity for our targeted audiences (practitioners, policy makers, and academics) to streamline efforts and craft policies (that is, financial assistance, economic reliefs, incentives) with the goal to better understand and help small business owners survive and thrive in an increasingly challenging business environment.","PeriodicalId":246224,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the International Council for Small Business","volume":"97 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128625054","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our resulting collective case study presents four mask makers representative of emerging categories: the artisan entrepreneur, the conscripted arts professional, the para-craftivist, and the social entrepreneur. While motivations and distribution approaches varied among our participants, this study has implications for entrepreneurship theory in areas such as entrepreneurship during crises, arts and entrepreneurship, microbusinesses, and social entrepreneurship. Additionally, through the examination of an untapped pool of skilled individuals, mostly women, who had not considered entrepreneurship before the pandemic, this research offers new ground for exploring entrepreneurial readiness in women entrepreneurs.","PeriodicalId":246224,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the International Council for Small Business","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124917100","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A narrative research study examined how artisan microentrepreneurs in the sewing space experienced entrepreneurial opportunity alertness as they navigated the early months of the pandemic. Findings indicate that participation in multistage artisan entrepreneur communities provided the greatest benefits for members with no perceptible disadvantages. Entrepreneurs with diverse coping strategies were more resilient to challenges. The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated consumer adoption of digital technology in the United States, which facilitated growth for microbusinesses that have digital fluency or are ready to adopt new technologies. Policy recommendations are to restore net neutrality and implement federal funding for nonemployer firms impacted by disaster so artisan microbusinesses can thrive in the digital space.","PeriodicalId":246224,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the International Council for Small Business","volume":"124 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115784924","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The findings revealed that diversion of funds, inconsistencies in business, and lack of documentation prevail and are curbed by using mobile banking, improving relationship banking, and monitoring.

In reality, however, facilitating entrepreneurial ideation can play a significant role in the easier formation of entrepreneurial businesses. In order to assess the strength and weaknesses of the field, this study identifies the status and body of entrepreneurial idea generation facilitation knowledge using a bibliometric approach. Results of a comprehensive search on the Scopus database were filtered after a title and abstract check and narrowed down to 61 journal papers. Sources, authors, articles, keywords, and citations are analyzed. Findings show that, lately, researchers in various fields have paid more attention to facilitating entrepreneurial idea generation. Mostly education has been mentioned as facilitation, including formal education and experiential learning.
