| Summary: | Entrepreneurship and urban regeneration policy have traditionally been treated as separate fields. This volume focuses on the links between the two, examining how policy can help regenerate inner cities and other areas of urban distress by stimulating entrepreneurship. It sets out recent policy developments in North American and European cities in financing entrepreneurship, providing advice, training and mentoring to entrepreneurs, using special zones and area-based policies to grow new and small firms, and supporting social enterprises.
