The science and practice of new business ventures: Wealth creation and prosperity through entrepreneurship growth and renewal

Abstract

This paper concentrates on the theory and practice of innovation and entrepreneurship. Indeed, the lessons of history relate to the importance of understanding the importance combining the two. When the two are combined, we can begin to talk seriously about the science of entrepreneurship. Like the Agriculture Agent, we must continually strive to create the knowledge within the academies and translate that knowledge into wealth and jobs. The first part of the paper is a quick overview of the historical data on innovation and entrepreneurship, concentrating on theories as late as the 1800s and as early as 2000 B.C. We then turn to the “do ” spirit or the importance of practice, which has recently developed with school of business in the area of entrepreneurship. The Austin Model is used to enhance our discussion of combining practice with theory so that structures of entrepreneurial enhancement can continually developed and re-invented. Business Schools, like all professional schools, should concentrate on the sifting of best practices to advance practice. In this case, it is the practice of entrepreneurship. Business Schools can no longer afford top simply do case studies, but must combine research with practice in order to create regional and global wealth jobs and prosperity.
