SSRN Announces New Entrepreneurship Research & Policy Network (ERPN)

The Social Science Research Network is pleased to announce the
creation of the Entrepreneurship Research & Policy Network (ERPN).

ERPN is sponsored by the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation
http://www.kauffman.org/research and will provide an online community
for entrepreneurship research from all academic disciplines and the
users of that information. We are very pleased to be working with the
Kauffman Foundation in this important and growing area of
scholarship. In addition to sponsoring the network, Robert Litan,
Vice President for Research and Policy at the Kauffman Foundation,
will serve as the Network Director and the Foundation is graciously
providing free ERPN subscriptions to U.S. universities and not-for-
profit institutions for the first year.  The list of institutions
receiving free subscriptions is available at:
http://www.ssrn.com/SiteLic_orgSubscribers.cfm?netid=810024.  If your
institution is not listed and you would like to request a sponsored
subscription, please reply to this email or write to:
Management at SSRN.com and include your institution name, URL, and a
contact name.

ERPN will also include research from Harvard Business School
Entrepreneurial Management Unit and Now Publishers' Foundation and
Trends - Entrepreneurship, Innovation and Technological Change.  By
including the latest research from the Harvard Business School and
peer-reviewed articles from Foundation and Trends, ERPN is working to
become the most complete online resource for entrepreneurship
research. We look forward to adding more institutions and peer-
reviewed journals in the future.
