Entrepreneurship and Development in Nepal: Post-COVID Implications (2024) (Entrepreneurship and Development in South Asia: Longitudinal Narratives)

Synopsis

This book illustrates a connection between entrepreneurship and development in an emerging economy context, focusing on Nepal. That entrepreneurship contributes to sustainable development by creating jobs, elevating economic growth, promoting innovation, and mitigating social and environmental challenges is discussed in other works. Entrepreneurship is linked to several sustainable development goals. However, relatively little is known about entrepreneurship in Nepal at an international level and rarely have researchers attempted to explore the relationship between entrepreneurship and development in the Nepalese context. In this regard, this book generates valuable insights, not only contributing to policy implications but also setting a direction for entrepreneurship research in Nepal within a wider context of sustainable development. In particular, the book discusses several important issues on entrepreneurship, including migrant entrepreneurship, entrepreneurial ecosystem, social entrepreneurship, entrepreneurial finance, community-based entrepreneurship, and tourism entrepreneurship, issues which are intrinsically connected to the sustainable development of the country. In addition to policy contributions, the book provides a direction for facilitating theoretically underpinned work in entrepreneurship and development in the Nepalese context. The factors driving entrepreneurship, including specific social-cultural and historical factors that remain relevant for emerging economies, and emancipation, inclusion and participation, which are central to achieving development, are to be theorized in order to better understand the relationship between entrepreneurship and development. The topics covered by the book will be of interest to policy-makers from ministries and departments, international organizations, and development partners.
