Abstract

The literature on support within entrepreneurship ecosystems is in emergence, characterized by multiple levels of analysis, different stages of development, and different conceptualizations of regionality, without the ability to extend a successful model from one region to another. Given the emergent stage of development and the need regions have to locally develop their own ecosystems, this chapter provides a framework to study the support provided by different role players within the system and proposes dimensions to study the interdependencies in providing support. The proposed framework was illustrated and revised using a case study from South East Queensland, Australia, drawing on documents, interviews and observations. This paper contributes to the literature by providing a framework, with associated dimensions of support for entrepreneurs that is useful to understand the contributions of various players to identify support gaps and develop interventions to meet the development goals of regions of varying densities.
