Cases on Entrepreneurship in the Asia-Pacific

This casebook explores the dynamic world of entrepreneurship in the Asia-Pacific through diverse, real-world case studies. Drawing on examples ranging from a tech incubator to a family-run export business, contributors illustrate how entrepreneurs navigate local customs, scarce resources, evolving regulations and rapid technological shifts. By outlining both successful pivots and hard-won lessons, this book provides crucial insights into how entrepreneurial ventures thrive in one of the world’s most vibrant economic regions.

Key Features:

• Explores Asia-centric models of entrepreneurship
• Presents case studies that span a range of countries, sectors and socio-economic contexts
• Showcases the impact of individual passion, community networks and institutional support on creating unique business models
• Links personal entrepreneurial journeys to broader institutional, cultural and market dynamics, highlighting practical strategies for overcoming common hurdles including market entry and funding gaps

With structured teaching notes and accessible case studies that demonstrate entrepreneurial concepts in action, this book is an essential resource for scholars, students and educators in the fields of entrepreneurship, innovation, business and Asia-Pacific studies. Policymakers and practitioners in development agencies will also benefit from the book’s insights into structural enablers and barriers across different economies.
