520    In the world of business, who you know is usually more 
       important than what you know. While most research 
       highlights the personal characteristics and expertise 
       important to business success, this book demonstrates that
       networking is the core of entrepreneurship. Both 
       counterintuitive and powerful, this perspective reframes 
       entrepreneurial action by placing networking at the center
       of the process. Traditionally, networks have been regarded
       as facilitators of business, but Tom Elfring, Kim Klyver, 
       and Elco van Burg argue that networking is actually the 
       basis of entrepreneurial action, and conversely, that 
       entrepreneurial action is networking. They describe the 
       key dynamics, mechanisms, and practices of 
       entrepreneurship as networking, and point at fruitful 
       networking strategies for entrepreneurs. Thus, the authors
       provide an integrated and dynamic account of 
       entrepreneurial agency that prioritizes interaction with 
       the surrounding social environment. They also explain what
       a viable network is for entrepreneurs and how networking 
       activities affect their endeavors. Their perspective sheds
       new light on the origins of opportunities and how 
       entrepreneurs access and mobilize resources. The approach 
       also explains how entrepreneurs build legitimacy and 
       exploit the networks they work within.
