Powerful finance and innovation trends in a high-risk economy

Capitalism and the enterprise are economic systems that are mutually dependant in their aim of developing and disseminating new technologies. The beginning of the twenty-first century has seen an increase in global, economic dependence on the generation of new technologies. This dependence has been accompanied by greater financial risk due to the rapid obsolescence of products and technologies. An international team of experts explore the theories and facts that characterize this high-risk economy. The analysis focuses on both macro and microeconomic aspects of the contradictory relationship between finance and innovation. The book utilizes a historical and procedural approach and stresses the role of powerful finance in innovation selection and diffusion. An analysis of entrepreneurial strategies demonstrates that the evolution of the organization of an enterprise and its capacity to innovate depend on the limits defined by finance, and on the large profit opportunities offered by new technologies and new markets.
