Entrepreneurial Alertness and Innovation: Innovation Networks in the Oslo Region of Norway
Abstract
The paper attempts to close a research gap related to remoteness of pure innovation and
pure entrepreneurship research streams. In this study, we use theoretical concepts from
the entrepreneurship research (i.e., entrepreneurial dynamism and entrepreneurial
alertness) and attempt to analyze interaction between the actors in the regional networks
in the Oslo region of Norway. The study derives several propositions which will be
subsequently tested in the further quantitative studies.
