Diversity in content, approach and policy characterizes this collection of papers from the 19th ISBA National Small Firms Policy and Research Conference. The contributions reflect the variety and vibrancy of small firms research, and map out the centrality of the ?enterprise agenda? to academics, policy-makers and the wider business community. Amongst the issues covered in the thirteen chapters are the changing nature of entrepreneurship and entrepreneurial identities, internationalization and SMEs, training in small firms, networking, Business Links, enterprise support for ethnic minority businesses, and the policy relevance of small firms research. Though eclectic in many ways, the volume provides a challenging set of questions to anyone interested in entrepreneurship and SME development. The conference was organized on behalf of ISBA by the University of Central England Business School. Published on behalf of the Institute for Small Business Affairs.Ram, Monder is the author of 'Small Firms Enterprising Futures' with ISBN 9781853963759 and ISBN 1853963755.
