Technology Entrepreneurship offers powerful methods for building high-tech startups. The book covers highly relevant topics that can help science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) students move from conceptualising innovative ideas, all the way to business model development, building prototypes or minimum viable products (MVPs), growing and internationalising their startups; thus making the entrepreneurial journey accessible. * Yazid Abdullah, Universiti Brunei Darussalam *
Outstanding among the few texts on Technopreneurship, Technology Entrepreneurship is packed with insight, tools and global examples that make the process of commercialisation relevant to students with a technology or science background, and accessible to gradates and undergraduates alike. * Rod McNaughton, University of Auckland *
