The 1-2-3 Of Market Research For Business Startups: A Case Study In Library Instruction, Daniel Le, Marie-Louise Watson

An Entrepreneur’S Perspective On Entrepreneurial Recycling, Alenka Slavec Gomezel, Rok Stritar
Economic and Business Review
We propose new insights into entrepreneurial recycling, focusing on the entrepreneur’s perspective on the role of recycling.

However, research on this topic remains fragmented and underdeveloped. We applied a qualitative, interpretive, and inductive lens to explore the lived experience of six entrepreneurs in order to conceptualize entrepreneurial recycling and understand the implications for entrepreneurial theory and practice. We argue that when entrepreneurs recycle, they trigger a reciprocal trust loop with benefits …
