Global networked entrepreneurship: linking the world´s technopoleis for shared prosperity at home and abroad

This paper presents global networked entrepreneurship as a strategy for linking the world´s technopoleis for shared prosperity at home and abroad. Traditionally research on technopoleis has focused on fostering regionally-based technology-intensive wealth and job creation. However, increasingly the emphasis, from the public and private sectors, has shifted toward international collaboration. This paper suggests that as the world´s technopoleis move into the 21st Century the linking of talent, technology, capital, and business know-how through global networked entrepreneurship will become a reality. Furthermore, globally-based experiential learning laboratories will be considered fundamentally important to shortened product development and commercialization cycles
