  • Chapter One Introduction
    University of Stirling Waswa Balunywa Portfolio Entrepreneurs and Economic Growth: The Case of Uganda A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy i Abstract Many developing countries have not benefited from the technological changes that have taken place over the last 30 years. Uganda has been no exception. The country continues to have over 30 percent of its people below the poverty line. This is despite the appropriateness of macro economic policy and government action in many of these countries. Even in the developed countries, slowness in growth has been attributed to lack of enterprise rather than policy and government action. For this reason, governments and multilateral institutions like the World Bank, have attributed the continued poverty or the slow growth to other factors like governance, institutions but more importantly, entrepreneurship. Classical, and indeed neo-classical economists, did not pay much attention to entrepreneurship as a determinant of growth and therefore this relationship has not been explored in most of the research that has attempted to explain determinants of economic growth. It was Schumpeter who suggested that the entrepreneur had a role in economic growth but no empirical studies have been undertaken to verify this. Thus was until recently when the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) studies were initiated in 1999 led by Paul Reynolds who had done some previous research in this area. The current GEM studies have focused on small firms and yet the model has existing large firms. This study identifies this gap and it is that gap that the study attempts to explain. Having no firm theoretical foundation, the study adopted an inductive approach using mainly qualitative techniques but also adopted quantitative techniques given the nature of the relationship among the variables.

  • The Contribution of Portfolio Entrepreneurs to Economic Development and Growth: the Ugandan Laboratory Case
    AGSE 2009 THE CONTRIBUTION OF PORTFOLIO ENTREPRENEURS TO ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND GROWTH: THE UGANDAN LABORATORY CASE Waswa Balunywa: Makerere University Business School, Kampala, Uganda Peter Rosa: University Of Edinburgh Business School, Edinburgh, United Kingdom ∼ Contact: Peter Rosa, University of Edinburgh Business School, William Robertson Building, 50 George Square, ., EH8 9JY Edinburgh, UK, (T) 0044 131 650 3798, Email: [email protected] INTRODUCTION It is now twenty two years since MacMillan (1986) recommended that to understand entrepreneurship we should study serial entrepreneurs. Since then there have been many studies on habitual and portfolio entrepreneurs, covering a range of themes. Early studies concentrated on definitional issues, distinguishing serial entrepreneurs (those that start a series of businesses, but close each one before starting another) and portfolio entrepreneurs, (entrepreneurs who start more than one business but do not necessarily close those started previously, hence leading to the ownership of a portfolio of businesses)(Birley and Westhead, 1993). They also focused on whether there were detectable differences in the nature of businesses started by novice and habitual entrepreneurs, and whether the creation of a group of companies by an entrepreneur is an entrepreneurial process linked with growth. Their contribution to growth, it was argued, could only be fully appreciated by switching the unit of analysis from the firm to the entrepreneur (Rosa, 1998, Scott and Rosa, 1999). Since 2000 there have been three themes of research. First considerable attention has been paid by Westhead, Ucbasaran and Wright in a series of articles to what characterises habitual entrepreneurs, in particular whether their human capital (education, but crucially experience) is a critical factor in the success of habitual entrepreneurs (Ucbasaran et al.

    A television study on the influence of media ownership on news content in Uganda: A comparison of Wavah Broadcasting Services (WBS) and Nation Television (NTV) Samuel Kazibwe (215080835) Supervisor: Prof. Ruth Elizabeth Teer-Tomaselli A thesis submitted in fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Centre for Communication, Media and Society University of KwaZulu-Natal 2018 DECLARATION College of Humanities Declaration – Plagiarism I, Samuel Kazibwe, hereby declare that this thesis is my original work except where otherwise indicated. The thesis has not been submitted for any degree or examination at any other university. It does not contain data, graphs, pictures or other information from any other person or the internet except where it is specifically acknowledged and the sources are detailed both in the text and the reference list. This study was undertaken between March 2015 and November 2017 under the supervision of Prof Ruth Elizabeth Teer-Tomaselli. Signature: ……………………………………… Date: ……………………………… Supervisor: ……………………………………. Date: ……………………………… i ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I wish to thank the Almighty God for successfully walking me through this intellectual journey. To paraphrase Barack Obama‘s words during his inaugural address as the 44th president of the United States in January 2009, the journey has been long and the climb has been steep. However, due to God‘s mercy and kindness, I have been able to make it. I wish to express my gratitude to the Norwegian Programme for Capacity Development in Higher Education and Research for Development (NORHED) as well as Uganda Christian University (UCU) for jointly providing the necessary funds for this study. I am very sure that if I had not received this funding it would have taken me much longer to enrol for a PhD especially in a highly regarded institution like the University of KwaZulu-Natal (UKZN).
