Books
In our books and publications, we explore the development of international startup and entrepreneurial ecosystems. We combine insights from leading stakeholders with in-depth analyses of existing infrastructure, policy frameworks, and economic conditions.
Our target audiences include policymakers, ecosystem supporters, founders, and—most importantly—aspiring entrepreneurs (e.g. students), to whom we distribute our books free of charge.
