Yet, for every public intervention that spurs entrepreneurial activity, there are many failed efforts that waste untold billions in taxpayer dollars. When has governmental sponsorship succeeded in boosting growth, and when has it fallen terribly short? Should the government be involved in such undertakings at all? <em>Boulevard of Broken Dreams</em> is the first extensive look at the ways governments have supported entrepreneurs and venture capitalists across decades and continents.

He examines the public strategies used to advance new ventures, points to the challenges of these endeavors, and reveals the common flaws undermining far too many programspoor design, a lack of understanding for the entrepreneurial process, and implementation problems. Lerner explains why governments cannot dictate how venture markets evolve, and why they must balance their positions as catalysts with an awareness of their limited ability to stimulate the entrepreneurial sector.<br />As governments worldwide seek to spur economic growth in ever more aggressive ways, <em>Boulevard of Broken Dreams</em> offers an important caution. The book argues for a careful approach to government support of entrepreneurial activities, so that the mistakes of earlier efforts are not repeated.</p>...1393897Boulevard of Broken Dreams242314https://www.gandhi.com.mx/boulevard-of-broken-dreams-9781400831630/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/1136621/c78459ab-fcff-4b2d-b939-cb3650dad879.jpg?v=638696020862170000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20249781400831630_W3siaWQiOiIyYTcxZGNkYS03ZmZmLTRlMzUtYWJjOC02ZTJjZWNjMDQ2MDciLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjMxNCwiZGlzY291bnQiOjcyLCJzZWxsaW5nUHJpY2UiOjI0MiwiaW5jbHVkZXNUYXgiOnRydWUsInByaWNlVHlwZSI6Ildob2xlc2FsZSIsImN1cnJlbmN5IjoiTVhOIiwiZnJvbSI6IjIwMjQtMTEtMDFUMDc6MDA6MDBaIiwicmVnaW9uIjoiTVgiLCJpc1ByZW9yZGVyIjpmYWxzZX1d9781400831630_<p><strong>How governments can do a better job of supporting entrepreneurship and venture capital</strong></p><p>Silicon Valley, Singapore, Tel Avivthe global hubs of entrepreneurial activityall bear the marks of government investment.
