Not all markets are alike: the European entrepreneur requires knowledge on how to avoid pitfalls before believing and focusing on opportunity. European Venture Toolbox features the leadership toolkit future decision makers, innovators, and entrepreneurs need to build a venture in Europe.

Many European entrepreneurs are prone to the rhetoric of company building based on fast-growing start-up survivors, abundance of circulating capital, and sub-optimal business models monetizing late. They fall into the trap of thinking a mildly successful company can survive in the European ecosystem even if it does not thrive. This toolbox provides a framework to assess risk and return of choices, iteratively implement business, and avoid being blinded by incorrect principles not grounded in financial reality.

European Venture Toolbox: The path for SMEs to grasp and defend opportunities is a compelling book for all small-to-medium enterprises. Written by a theoretician and a practitioner, it captures Europe-specific perspectives, examples, and case studies to provide an alternative insight.

The Entrepreneurial Behaviour series is focused on expanding the scope of Entrepreneurial Behaviour theory and analysis and enriching practice by encouraging multi-cultural and multi-disciplinary approaches.

Digitalization has recently emerged as a critical strategy for businesses to survive during disruptive times and crises. By utilizing digital tools, enterprises can enhance their communication capabilities, achieve cost savings, access new markets, implement data-driven and efficient decision-making processes, and maintain contact and alignment with key stakeholders regardless of market conditions. However, scant attention has been paid to how micro and small enterprises (MSEs) exploit digitalization to cope with recent crises.

Digitalization as a Strategic Tool for Entrepreneurship Survival and Crisis Management: Lessons from Ukrainian MSEs investigates the impact of digital transformation on the survival of MSEs during times of crisis, guided by Ukraine as an emblematic empirical case study. The choice of Ukrainian MSEs as the research context is based on the prospect of obtaining valuable insights by examining micropreneurs during an ongoing crisis stemming from the 2022 military invasion by Russia and the residual effects of the pandemic. The ongoing socio-economic situation in Ukraine is being scrutinized in real-time, providing a distinctive opportunity to analyze its impact on entrepreneurs’ behavior during their efforts to stabilize businesses and the predominant challenges that most MSEs confront.

The book offers significant insights into the potential benefits of digitalizing business models, management capabilities of micropreneurs, and employing multi-stakeholder and omnichannel communication strategies, which micropreneurs can utilize.

SMEs represent more than 95% of businesses operating in global markets. These businesses are the fabric of any economic system both in developed and emerging countries, and are the main constituents of any global supply chain throughout the world. However, research on new 4.0 marketing strategies for this kind of businesses has been largely neglected. Extant literature mostly neglects, or fails to articulate the importance of emerging technology such as Big Data, Artificial Intelligence and VR/AR for SMEs.
