Entrepreneurship, Innovation and Sustainability Edited by Marcus Wagner l High-quality research illuminating the relationship between the three fields of entrepreneurship, innovation and sustainability Addresses the intersection of entrepreneurship, innovation and sustainability (EIS). The EIS nexus is particularly relevant from an EU point of view; and the rapid economic growth witnessed especially in the BRIC countries in recent years requires that firms reconcile sustainability aspects with profitability and innovation, and entrepreneurs are seen as key diffusers of these March 2012 310+x pp 234 x 156 mm hardback ISBN 978-1-906093-73-0 £40.00 €50.00 $75.00 Rights: all PDF eBook ISBN 978-1-907643-47-7 £40.00 €50.00 $75.00 Microfranchising How Social Entrepreneurs are Building a New Road to Development Edited by Nicolas Sireau l The franchise model as a response to Africa’s endemic economic stagnation l A ground-breaking set of case studies and analysis of microfranchising for development There is a new movement surging ahead in its attempt to reduce poverty and generate wealth in Africa: microfranchising. Set up by pioneering organizations such as VisionSpring and Health- Store, it is based on one of the most successful market-based models in Western economies. And results have been inspiring: instead of dependency generated by traditional charity development projects, these new social capitalists have generated enterprise and self-sustainability in the most challenging environments of rural Africa. recent title aims. Innovations required for sustainability often come from SMEs and so the role of the entrepreneur is key to their success. Section I examines the nexus in detail focusing on system-oriented connectivity between sustainability, innovation and entrepreneurship. Section II looks at how to nurture corporate entrepreneurship for sustainability. Section III considers “mature” industries such as automotives, chemicals and electronics. Section IV examines the nexus through the lens of developing countries in Africa. Section V concentrates on SMEs. In section VI the EIS nexus is approached from a network perspective and focuses on interorganizational partnerships, which are often an important facilitator or spark for EIS initiatives. This long-needed book provides practical steps from the world’s leading experts on how to set up a microfranchise, from recruiting franchisees, to building a brand and a supply chain. It gives case studies of successful microfranchises, told by the enterprises themselves. It continues with a theoretical analysis of the place of microfranchising within global social entrepreneurship. It ends with a look at the future for microfranchising, with recommendations for development. Edited by the former CEO of SolarAid, which created the Sunny Money microfranchise, the book brings together academics and practitioners to provide context, analysis and practical advice to guide any entrepreneur, NGO, business or government interested in setting up their own microfranchise scheme.
