This White Paper contains summaries of presentations given at a workshop on rural, non-farm enterprise supported by the Enterprise Research Centre and hosted at Aston Business School on 27th February 2014. The final contribution by Roger Turner, who co-ordinated the event for ERC, provides a summary of the discussions from the day and some of the issues which arose.
The Enterprise Research Centre has a dual objective: to carry out leading- edge research on small business growth and development and to ensure that where evidence does exist it is made available as widely as possible. The ‘Out of the Shadows’ event was linked to the second objective, and brought together academics and other researchers conducting research on rural business development with those formulating policy for and directly supporting rural enterprises.
The ERC is grateful to all of the contributors for their input at the ‘Out of the Shadows’ event and their permission to include material in this summary report.
