New Venture Creation

This new 7th Edition of 'New Venture Creation: Entrepreneurship for the 21st Century' is the most heavily revised edition since its existence, yet it still maintains the market defining 'Timmons Model of the Entrepreneurial Process.' As always, Timmons and Spinelli cover the process of getting a new venture started, growing the venture, and successfully harvesting it. Through text, case studies, and hands-on exercises, this how-to text guides students in discovering the concepts of entrepreneurship and the competencies, skills, tools, and experience to equip students to successfully launch a new venture and recognize entrepreneurial opportunities.
