Macro, Meso, and Micro Policies for Strengthening Entrepreneurship: Towards an Integrated Competitiveness Policy

Abstract

This article aims to propose an integrated policy framework for competitiveness and entrepreneurship at a unified macro-meso-micro level.The article presents the evolution of the definition of competitiveness and competitiveness policy and focuses next on modern definitions of macro-policies, meso-policies, and micro-policies by presenting their conceptual synthesis based on the literature.Then, by building on the approach of -competitiveness web,‖ it presents the implications that such an overarching concept can have on the micro-meso-macro level of entrepreneurship strengthening policies.In this context, it leverages the -Stra.Tech.Man‖ approach to entrepreneurship dynamics, which implies that business innovation derives from the synthesis of the innate spheres of strategy, technology, and management.At the same time, it proposes the micro-meso-level policy of -Local Development and Innovation Institutes‖ in the overall context of the competitiveness web.The proposed -competitiveness web‖ policy framework can address the issue of fostering entrepreneurship in today's environment of globalization because it takes into account all the building blocks of socio-economic systems by describing the general framework of the policies at the micro-meso-macro socioeconomic levels.
