Enthusiasm for e-commerce and the Internet has seen wide fluctuations,
as the price of Internet and e-commerce firms’ stock first increased
and then declined dramatically. Business schools rushed to develop new
courses related to electronic commerce to satisfy student demand,
possibly because some saw this as a route to riches. There was also an
increase in applied literature, which was to satisfy the demand for
information on how to compete in this new environment, or on how to
exploit the funds that appeared to be available for equity investments
in these new ventures. The world of E-business is exciting, especially
the prospect of making a lot of money. However, the degree to which
e-commerce is linked to entrepreneurship in the longer term provides
the focus for this volume. As with other new technologies such as the
telephone, radio, television, and computer, growth was rapid in the
initial stages of this technology. However, the degree to which the
Internet and e-commerce will alter our theoretical perspectives on
entrepreneurship has yet to be fully analyzed. This volume attempts to
take a initial step by examining the intersection of e-commerce and
entrepreneurship.
