How entrepreneurs create wealth in transition economies
研究了中欧、东欧、前苏联及东亚转型经济体中企业家的三种主要策略:勘探、网络和边界模糊,为在这些市场创业或进入的外国企业提供经验。
Entrepreneurship has been flourishing in the transition economies of Central and Eastern Europe, the newly independent states of the former Soviet Union, and East Asia. Entrepreneurs in these countries are characterized by their sheer energy, relentless strategies, and sometimes controversial practices. How can entrepreneurs rise to create wealth in environments traditionally hostile to entrepreneurial activities? What can be learned from such an experience? Focusing on these two key questions, this article draws on research from a broad range of transition economies to identify three major entrepreneurial strategies of prospecting, networking, and boundary blurring. It also delineates important lessons for entrepreneurs active in transition economies and foreign entrants interested in these emerging markets.
