What Is Social Entrepreneurship Really About?: Social entrepreneurship is a growth area, both in practice and in academic circles.

Does Global Size Matter For Productivity Of MNEs?: Previous research has shown that MultiNationals MNEs and in particular US-owned plants, are more productive than domestic ones. Existing evidence for the UK has shown that this US advantage is explained by US MNES picking the best plants to takeover and by US owned plants getting higher returns from ICT...; Tags: London School of Economics, U.K., Information and Communication Technology; White papers 2006-09-27
