The BSE Summer Forum on Entrepreneurship, co-organized with Mircea Epure and Mirjam van Praag, is a yearly event recognizing the importance of entrepreneurship in understanding business dynamism and economic growth for academics, policy makers, venture capitalists, and managers alike. We welcome cutting-edge empirical and theoretical submissions from a growing community of scholars interested in entrepreneurship across management, economics, and finance.Â
