Abstract
Sport entrepreneurship is a rapidly emerging new research field that combines sport management with entrepreneurship and innovation research. The aim of this chapter is to discuss the reasons for interest in sport entrepreneurship by explaining its definition and application in the business management area. The objectives of the book in terms of theory development and practical implication for those interested in sport as an entrepreneurial endeavor are discussed. This includes an overview of the future for sports entrepreneurship in terms of how to include more innovation and competitiveness. The chapter concludes by suggesting future research paths in terms of interesting ways to approve this interdisciplinary field by engaging in creative studies that have a practical implication.
