Making Ecopreneurs: Developing Sustainable Entrepreneurship: Corporate Social Responsibility

Editat de Michael Schaper
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 14 oct 2024
The first edition of this book looked at the emergence of 'ecopreneurs' - environmental entrepreneurs gaining competitive advantage for their firms through understanding and utilising green issues. These green entrepreneurs have led the way in enabling market forces to generate economic growth whilst protecting the environment and encouraging sustainability. This new edition continues the examination of what distinguishes these green entrepreneurs from others. It draws on a diverse range of case studies embracing examples of both successful and unsuccessful ecopreneurial ventures on at least four continents. Contributions have been updated and a number of entirely new chapters describe sustainable business projects in places ranging from the USA , India, western Europe, UK, Australia, central America and New Zealand. Making Ecopreneurs, second edition, charts recent developments and remains highly relevant to researchers in the fields of sustainable business development and entrepreneurship, to policymakers within governments and NGOs, and to those running businesses.

Matthews, University of Cincinnati, Past President, ICSB Reviews from the first edition: '...the diverse chapters and case studies in this book provide compelling insights on the nature of the challenges involved in entrepreneurship in the context of both developed and emerging countries. covering such issues as types of ecopreneurs, green market opportunity identification, consumer education, venture capital and ecotourism, with actual case experiences, the book makes a valuable contribution to a critical , yet under-researched facet of sustainability' Professor Edwin R.
