'Starting with the assumption of ecosystem homogeneity, the authors explore gender across the multi-level elements of entrepreneurial ecosystems using insights from feminist scholarship. The book develops a typology of ecosystems reflecting the dynamic interactions of gender across levels, giving insights into how gender matters and providing new directions for theory development and research. A thoughtful and important read for anyone studying entrepreneurship.' Candida G. Brush, Franklin W. Olin Distinguished Chair of Entrepreneurship, Arthur M. Blank Center for Entrepreneurship, Babson College- Entrepreneurship Division 'Here is a timely, great, relevant book on entrepreneurial ecosystems as gendered phenomena, offering thoughts on effective organizational practices and policies aimed at remedying gendered inequalities. A must-read, not only for scholars, but also for practitioners and policy makers.' Karen Verduijn, Senior Lecturer in Entrepreneurship, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam 'Prof Dr Banu Ozkazanc-Pan and Prof Dr Susan Clark Muntean offer a truly thought provoking view on how entrepreneurial ecosystems are highly gendered and racialized. This book excels in providing a critical, interdisciplinary as well as empirically grounded contribution to the field. Particularly its implications for in- and exclusion make it a must read for both scholars and policy makers.' Dr. Caroline Essers, Associate Professor Entrepreneurship & Leadership, Nijmegen School of Management, Radboud University
