"An analysis of what influences and shapes local competitiveness and what places can do to enhance their economic performance"--
The Consequences of the International Crisis for European SMEs
The book explores how, to what extent and with what consequences the international crisis of 2007-2008 and the recession which followed have affected European SMEs (small and medium enterprises) in both the well established market economies of the old member countries and in the post-transformation new member countries, and what can be done at the institutional and political level to uphold them.

Financial and Non-Financial Determinants of Business Performance: Financial Market and the Real Economy Perspectives
Running a business today is becoming more complex than two or three decades ago. The world is becoming increasingly open and globalized, and the production processes of goods and provision of services are inscribed in global supply and value-added chains. Large corporations are doing well in such a market, but small and medium-sized enterprises often find it increasingly difficult to function. In addition, apart from the processes exerting pressure on enterprises operating in the real economy, as a result of financial globalization, the scope of financial entities (banks, investment funds, stock exchanges) was also increasing (Knox-Hayes & Wójcik, 2020). However, this is a phase of the past...

GEM Spain 2022-2023 Report. Entrepreneurship Observatory of Spain
Every year the GEM Spain team prepares a report on entrepreneurial activity in the country. After 23 years, it would seem unnecessary to explain why this report has become a fundamental tool for understanding the entrepreneurial and innovation ecosystem in our country. Or to have to explain why it is a vital reference for researchers, policy makers, entrepreneurs or anyone interested in business development. It is also well known that the GEM Spain Report analyses with scientific rigour the entrepreneurial phenomenon, activity, characteristics and context. It would be redundant to emphasise that its importance lies in the information it provides annually, giving a complete, detailed and up-to-date vision for designing effective policies and strategies to support and promote entrepreneurship in the country. However, it is important to remember how it is done year after year. In our country, the GEM report is developed in the Spanish Entrepreneurship Observatory through a network of 27 regional teams representing the entire Spanish territory, without whose effort and commitment all this would be impossible.
Financial Ecologies Framed by Fintech
Financial technologies are understood as ICT-based financial innovations and business entities based on these innovations (Lai & Samers, 2021; Langley & Leyshon, 2021; Wójcik, 2021b). Like other technological innovations, Fintech not only influences technical parameters of products and services, but also transforms the economic organization of firms and industries (Baldwin, 2020; Sanchez & Mahoney, 2013). ICT solutions in the financial sector complement the existing services (e.g., payment platforms), substitute human work and tangible assets (e.g., robo-advisers), and generate new solutions (e.g., mobile wallets). Furthermore, Fintech transcends borders and geographical frontiers, as exemp...

Global Entrepreneurship Monitor. Informe GEM España 2018-2019
El proyecto GEM está consolidado como el observatorio más importante a nivel mundial sobre emprendimiento, pues desde 1999 mide la dinámica emprendedora en más de 100 países con una metodología común, evaluando características, actitudes y motivaciones de cientos de miles de personas en los cinco continentes. El presente informe está organizado en dos partes diferenciadas. En la primera estudiamos el fenómeno emprendedor en España, comparando nuestra situación con los 49 países participantes del GEM 2018, organizados en función de su nivel de ingresos y analizando la situación a nivel de Comunidades y Ciudades Autónomas. Para ello, utilizamos como fuentes primarias las encuestas realizadas a una muestra de 23.100 personas, representativa de la población adulta española entre 18 y 64 años y las respuestas de 36 expertos cualificados que opinan sobre diferentes aspectos del contexto para emprender. En la segunda parte, incluimos dos temas monográficos: el primero analiza la travesía desde la concepción de la idea de negocio a la realidad empresarial y el segundo se centra en las iniciativas nacientes y su crecimiento en España.
