This paper introduces a "third stream" of publication, that will appear in the 'Journal of Small Business and Entrepreneurship' ('JSBE'), the journal of the Canadian Council for Small Business and Entrepreneurship/Conseil Canadien des PME et de l'entrepreneuriat (CCSBE/CCPME), and in 'Small Enterprise Research' ('SER'), the journal of the Small Enterprise Association of Australia and New Zealand (SEAANZ). In this stream-founding paper it is argued that entrepreneurship researchers, currently, do not place sufficient emphasis on making their research findings relevant to entrepreneurs and their advisors, educators and those working in government on policy and programs. The paper then presents five general principles for turning entrepreneurship research findings into practical action guidelines for practitioners. The piece ends with a description of a new section to appear in both 'JSBE' and 'SER' beginning with this issue. |
