Dans Revue de l’Entrepreneuriat / Review of Entrepreneurship 2023/HS2 (Hors Série 2), pages 47 à 74. DOI 10.3917/entre.hs4.0047 https://www.cairn.info/revue-de-l-entrepreneuriat-2023-HS2-page-47.htm&wt.src=pdf Abstract: Accelerators are an increasingly popular concept in entrepreneurship research and practice. But it lacks a territorial perspective that highlights the impact of localized contexts on how these organizations work to catalyze new venture growth. We employ the novel lens of policy mobility and mutation to show how the acceleration model has evolved into a policy in Pakistan’s resource-constrained ecosystems. This helped accelerators become resil- ient to local challenges and needs by borrowing, internalizing, and assembling knowledge, networks, and capital from different institutions and other ecosystems. The policy framework also highlights sustainable acceleration models depending upon various intermediaries, funding sources, and ecosystem territories.
