Frameworks for Analysing African Innovation : Entrepreneurship, the Informal Economy and Intellectual Property

This chapter reviews conceptual frameworks to understand and measure innovation, and then outlines links between innovation and the concepts of entrepreneurship, the informal economy (IE) and intellectual property (IP).
