Testimonials

“International Journal of Gender and Entrepreneurship is one of the few journals that presents a wide array of in depth investigations of various aspects of women’s participation in entrepreneurship. The studies explore individual, firm, network and macro factors facilitating and inhibiting women’s entrepreneurship, and do so by either testing or building theory. The contributions in this volume not only help us to understand women’s entrepreneurship better but also have implications for entrepreneurship generally.”

– Prof. Candida G. Brush, Paul T. Babson Chair in Entrepreneurship, Babson College, USA
"The International Journal of Entrepreneurial Behaviour & Research is now firmly established as an indispensable journal in the field of small business and entrepreneurship. As someone who collaborates with scholars from other nations, I especially appreciate the journal’s international scope. Its openness to diverse theoretical and methodological approaches makes it a great outlet for a rich variety of works. I am delighted to serve on its Board."

– Prof. Howard Aldrich, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, USA.
"With a history of over 15 years the New Technology Based Firms in the New Millennium series has become an important venue for publishing research on and about new technology-based firms. The closely linked Annual High-Tech Small Firms Conference has for a long time been a main meeting place for researchers and policymakers in Europe, interested in issues related to innovation and entrepreneurship."

– Professor Åsa Lindholm Dahlstrand, Halmstad University, Sweden
“JSBED is an agenda-setting journal which keys into emerging small business and entrepreneurship debates. The journal has an international focus and a variety of theoretical and methodological lenses which are professionally applied. Insights from emerging scholars as well as established scholars provide novel and fresh insights into theoretical and practitioner debates. Members of the Editorial Board are internationally respected high caliber scholars. The journal is widely cited for its growing number of high quality articles.”

– Paul Westhead, Chair in Entrepreneurship, Director for the Centre of Entrepreneurship, Durham Business School
