This document discusses startup communities and entrepreneurial ecosystems. It notes that while practitioners think in terms of communities and systems, academics still have definitional issues. Good signs include practitioners focusing on communities rather than hierarchies, and phenomena being bottom-up and networked rather than top-down. Global organizations supporting entrepreneurship are mentioned. Research shows personal preparedness from knowing entrepreneurs and supportive social norms are top predictors of entrepreneurial activity. Ecosystems are described as messy, dynamic, interconnected networks with gaps and flows of resources. Inclusive, bottom-up communities with common causes and events are advocated for. Metrics and addressing bottlenecks are discussed for monitoring progress of ecosystems.

What do we know about
entrepreneurial ecosystems?
• Judging by definitional issues…
– Not much

• Potentially depressing
– Etzkowitz quotes
– Universities more often barriers
– Institutions more often constraints
– “Amateur Night” in general *save us from…+

Good News?
• Practitioners FAR ahead of us
• Think “community” or “system”
• Not hierarchical, but networked

• Bottom-up/supervenient phenomena

• DEFRAG?
– Map then…
– Karen Stephenson – sociogram model
– Genealogical model?

Who is stepping up?
– Who actually know what they are doing…

This document discusses company startups and job creation in Denmark and the US. It finds that new companies account for 9% of employment in Denmark, but 25% in the US. It then analyzes the Danish biotech ecosystem, finding it is one of the largest in Europe but still smaller than leading US clusters. Interviews highlight that the Danish biotech sector benefited from access to venture capital and experienced professionals leaving large companies. The document concludes that strong innovation ecosystems can develop intentionally when large anchor companies and successful entrepreneurs reinvest in the region.

Healthy Entrepreneurial Ecosystems

Erik Stam

This document discusses entrepreneurial ecosystems and the situation in the Netherlands. It contains the following key points: 1. An entrepreneurial ecosystem is defined as an interdependent set of actors governed in a way that enables entrepreneurship. Key elements include culture, networks, finance, talent, and demand. 2. The Netherlands has seen amazing growth in entrepreneurship but a paradox of mostly solo self-employment and low rates of ambitious, growth-oriented entrepreneurship. 3. To develop a healthy entrepreneurial ecosystem, the Netherlands needs to change institutions to enable talent mobility, stimulate public demand for new knowledge, and foster a culture of ambitious entrepreneurship through leadership. Improved monitoring of regional ecosystems is also recommended.

10 Lessons for Building an Entrepreneurial Ecosystem in Your Community

Sean Griffin

I have spent the last 8 years living in Tulsa, Oklahoma after moving from my hometown of San Jose, California. Following a Mayoral appointment to Chair of Entrepreneurial Initiatives at the City of Tulsa in 2006, a small team of us began the process of actively building an entrepreneurial ecosystem. This Slidedeck shares some of the lessons I have learned from the process. Please feel free to contact me to learn more.

Copenhagen ecosystem workshop slides

Norris Krueger

This document discusses ways to grow and strengthen entrepreneurial ecosystems. It outlines four constants of great startup communities: 1) being entrepreneur-led, 2) inclusiveness, 3) rallying points like events and programs, and 4) long-term perspective. Specific strategies are provided, such as making sure the ecosystem is bottom-up driven by entrepreneurs' wants, having resources for different types of entrepreneurs, and developing metrics to measure ecosystem health. The talk emphasizes the need to "defrag" ecosystems by understanding connections, aligning resources to roadmaps, and celebrating successes to inspire others.

Recipes to make your own city smart

Edoardo Calia

Smart cities aim to empower communities and citizens to help shape and improve their cities through new technologies and approaches. Traditionally, cities have been managed in a top-down manner without much citizen input, but smart cities seek to change this by facilitating new ways for citizens, government, and other groups to communicate and collaborate. Making this transition will be difficult as old systems decline but new tools like social networks and crowdfunding can help engage communities and support grassroots innovation.

Inspiration Architecture: The Future of Libraries

Peter Morville

The document discusses inspiration architecture and the future of libraries. It addresses some key challenges libraries currently face, such as fragmentation across multiple sites and domains making it difficult for users to find what they need. It also notes that most users do not enter the library directly from the home page, and can be confused by what they find once they enter. The document advocates for designing libraries in a way that makes their resources more easily findable for users.

Beyond the paper cv and developing a scientific profile online

US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Center for Computational Toxicology and Exposure

This is a presentation made at the "Advancing Research Communication and Scholarship" http://arcscon.tumblr.com/ Many of us nowadays invest significant amounts of time in sharing our activities and opinions with friends and family via social networking tools. However, despite the availability of many platforms for scientists to connect and share with their peers in the scientific community the majority do not make use of these tools, despite their promise and potential impact and influence on our future careers. We are being indexed and exposed on the internet via our publications, presentations and data. We also have many more ways to contribute to science, to annotate and curate data, to “publish” in new ways, and many of these activities are as part of a growing crowdsourcing network. This presentation will provide an overview of the various types of networking and collaborative sites available to scientists and ways to expose your scientific activities online. Many of these can ultimately contribute to the developing measures of you as a scientist as identified in the new world of alternative metrics. Participating offers a great opportunity to develop a scientific profile within the community and may ultimately be very beneficial, especially to scientists early in their career.

What Works for Self Advocate Leaders; Research Update

vBrownBag Presentation

Jon Hildebrand

Jon Hildebrand gives a non-technical talk about the cultural aspects of DevOps. He discusses that culture is immensely important for DevOps initiatives and that changing behaviors is key to establishing a new culture. Some cultural aspects highlighted include moving from a blame culture to one of learning from failures through practices like blameless post-mortems. He also emphasizes balancing the "golden triangle" of development, operations, and security through collaboration and shared responsibilities between teams.

Social Graphs for Better Drug Development

Vaticle

The drug development process is lengthy, expensive and highly prescriptive. Many drug trials will fail or run into difficulties, and so there is a constant pressure for even marginal improvements. Surprisingly, many of the salient problems are concerned with "soft" or social knowledge: who are the "best" clinical investigators to work with? What other investigators might they know that they can recruit? What is their conversation in the therapeutic space? Here we detail our experiences in mining academic literature, social networks and publications to build a social graph for figures in the drug trial space. By interrogating this graph and integrating it with text analysis of their dialogue, we hope to be able to identify key figures that can be engaged, and useful people and sites that can be recruited into clinical trials, thus making the development of new therapies more efficient.
