Ecosystems Emerge is A Must Have Book for Local Economic Developers

As a new economic development practice, entrepreneurship ecosystem building is exploding in popularity across the nation. However, because it is new, many economic developers do not know about it or how it fits into the field of economic development. In a first-of-its-kind book, Ecosystems Emerge answers many of these questions.

It provides a historical view of local economic development, starting from industrial attraction models that began in the 1930s through entrepreneurship ecosystem building, which emerged at scale in the late 2000s.

Ecosystems Emerge details the historical context that allowed each local economic development strategy to develop and discusses the rationale and criticisms of each strategy. If you are an economic developer, this is a must-have book for your bookshelf.
