<span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black">Innovation and entrepreneurship are tightly coupled concepts. Innovation involves designing new ways of conceptualising, developing and producing goods and services which society requires, whilst entrepreneurship
 is sometimes said to be a mindset required to convert innovation into a real business situation which will deliver benefits to the stakeholders. Entrepreneurship is generally driven by an individual or a small group of individuals who are sometimes colloquially
 referred to as the ‘movers and shakers’ in our society. The International Conference on Innovation and Entrepreneurship is a platform for academic researchers and practitioners in the field to come together to discuss the emerging topics and the share their
