To reduce the load on cellular networks, offloading to Wi-Fi has long been discussed as a technological solution. Despite advances in scheduling algorithms and incentive schemes, most mobile operators do not actively promote Wi-Fi offloading and most Wi-Fi usage is limited to stationary in-home...

Although research on entrepreneurial intention and business models is gaining attention, there is still a large knowledge gap on both fields.
