Popis: | The European space sector is a highly regulated and resource intensive industry, which makes it hard for entrepreneurial activities around front-end innovations to emerge and to become successful. Through a comparative case study design, we provide a detailed reading of the European space sector, as a particular entrepreneurial context, and theorize about how sector-level institutional logics impinge on entrepreneurial activities, but also create opportunities for savvy entrepreneurs – who align themselves with such logics – to gain legitimacy and support for their innovations and burgeoning ventures. We discuss the implications of these findings for theory and research on entrepreneurship in different institutional contexts. |
