Examining entrepreneurship within Nigeria's military ecosystem, this volume shows how this can be leveraged for economic growth.

Bringing together diverse perspectives, this book offers a comprehensive examination of the connections between entrepreneurship, the military as an institution, military family members and military-affiliated enterprises in Africa.
