INCLUSIVE ENTREPRENEURIAL ECOSYSTEMS AND MSME RESILIENCE: A CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK FOR LOCAL ECONOMIC ADAPTATIO
Keywords:
MSMEs; Inclusive Entrepreneurial Ecosystems; Dynamic Capabilities; Organizational Learning; Business ResilienceAbstract
This conceptual paper develops an integrative framework for inclusive entrepreneurial ecosystems in micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs). It synthesizes established literature on the resource-based view, dynamic capabilities, organizational learning, absorptive capacity, social capital, resilience, and entrepreneurial ecosystems. The analysis explains how institutional accessibility, network diversity, knowledge exchange, market connections, and adaptive enterprise capability can be organized into proportionate managerial routines. No primary survey, interview, experimental, or statistical data are claimed. The framework proposes diagnosis, capability mapping, bounded experimentation, evidence review, governance, resource reconfiguration, and learning retention as a cumulative cycle. Implications are developed for owner-managers, support institutions, and future empirical research.
