The rich cultural heritage and diversity of Europe has continually played a key role in the development of entrepreneurship and entrepreneurship education in Europe. Based upon entries into the ECSB and EFMD case study competitions, this pan-European volume brings together some of the best cases currently available on European entrepreneurs. Representing a wide variety of backgrounds, countries and topics, from pre-start-ups to international growth, from profit orientation to social orientation, and from individual to team entrepreneurship, this volume of case studies is both comprehensive and inclusive. Additionally, readers and European students of Entrepreneurship will be able to identify easily with the role models depicted in the cases and understand more clearly the challenges faced by the entrepreneurs. This book is the inaugural volume in the 'European Cases in Entrepreneurship Series', and is an exciting addition to the broadening base of pan-European materials now being used in Entrepreneurship classes across Europe.*
* The teaching notes for these cases will be available only to members of the ECSB and EFMD associations through the Members Only area of their websites.
