Special Issue on: "Global Entrepreneurship"
Deadline: 15 August 2008

Guest Editors: Prof. Daewoo Park, Prof. Hema A. Krishnan, and Prof.
Jamal Abu-Rashed, Xavier University, USA

"Global entrepreneurship" has emerged as the business buzzword of the
1990s and has captured the attention of practitioners and academicians
in the world's emerging and developed economic regions in the 21st
millennium. Global entrepreneurship is to a large extent influenced by
the interdependence between competition and cooperation. In other words,
nations and companies have recognised that, to develop a sustainable
competitive advantage, it is important to harness the synergies between
competitors and collaborators and to foster an environment for mutual
interdependence. As a result, the 21st millennium has witnessed
increased activity in global entrepreneurship among firms. No other
strategy has proved as effective as global entrepreneurship to lift
millions of people above poverty levels. While there are several
examples of leading MNCs such as S-LCD (Sony and Samsung's LCD joint
venture) and SNECMA (France's state-owned GE and Pratt & Whitney's
aircraft engine joint venture) that demonstrate the role of global
entrepreneurship, there are also many examples of small companies,
especially in the area of micro financing, that exemplify global
entrepreneurship.

This special issue is intended to encompass both theoretical and
practical methodologies and topics in the area of global
entrepreneurship. Also, the theme of this issue has major implications
for public policy makers in the emerging and developed nations of the
world.
