Beschreibungen

<p>This book investigates the intersection of Christian faith and entrepreneurship in the global marketplace through empirical micro-level research on various Christian-based firms in North and Central America, Asia, Europe, and Africa. It features diverse cross-cultural cases, ranging from small family businesses to large enterprises, and covers multiple industries and regions.</p>

<p>The book attempts to answer this research question: "How do Christian faith and entrepreneurship converge in the marketplace?" Through a comparative, cross-cultural case analysis, the work identifies thematic categories of Christian faith-based entrepreneurship, extending and integrating the two conceptual areas of faith and entrepreneurship from a Christian worldview with a Judeo-Christian heritage. The selected cases this book explored enhanced the emergent model of faith-based entrepreneurship applicable across faith-based organization types and regions. This book also provides significant empirical and theoretical contributions to faith-based entrepreneurship, offering new research areas for the future research paradigm. The cases in this book delve into topics such as faith and women entrepreneurship, religion, spirituality, and social entrepreneurship, faith and family entrepreneurship, and good practices of entrepreneurship, in line with the latest trends in the field, and will be of interest to all students and researchers in entrepreneurship.</p>
