Abstract
This paper provides an overview of thinking on the intersection of development and entrepreneurship. Given the relative neglect of entrepreneurship by development scholars, it deals with: (i) recent theoretical insights from the intersection of entrepreneurship and development studies; (ii) the empirical evidence on the relationship between entrepreneurship and development; and (iii) fresh insights for entrepreneurship policy for development that have emerged from recent advances in this area, including female entrepreneurship in developing countries.
