Entrepreneurship is the principal tool for economic development at the grassroots of society. It contributes to the social-economic and regional industrial growth as a feeder sector across various geo-demographic and cultural segments. Thus, entrepreneurship today has emerged as the mainstay of socio-economic development, which is widely supported by public policies within emerging economies. However, the performances of micro, small, medium, and large enterprises across destinations vary due to asymmetric entrepreneurial behavior, contextual socio-political motivation, developmental resources, extent of industrial diversity, and entrepreneurial business of product and services. Entrepreneurship today has grown beyond epistemological boundaries, and it provides contemporary and hybrid insights into coopetition practices within the industry. It has a reciprocal relationship with markets and entrepreneurial competence, which strengthens the coexistence of social and economic goals. In developing economies, public policies backing regional development have impelled the enthusiasm on entrepreneurial revolution aiming at making a significant shift in the conventional industry models. The growing number of local enterprises have shown remarkable industry attractiveness and market competitiveness, and it is contributing to valuable business-specific applications. The scope of reverse innovation has connected multinational companies with local enterprises to commercialize the bottom-line innovations at the global scale. Local enterprises have made significant contributions to global markets in the areas of information technology, digital commerce, healthcare, and utilitarian applications to enhance consumer value. Multinational companies like General Electric (Healthcare), Google (Digital Commerce), Hindustan Unilever Ltd. (Ethnic products), Procter and Gamble (Organic product), and many other consumer products and technology companies have attracted start-up, small, and medium scale enterprises to leverage a win-win business paradigms spanning beyond boundaries. This bottom-up industrial revolution empowers industries irrespective of their sizes to adapt to the low-cost logical business frameworks. Accordingly, the local enterprises have come together in an entirely hybrid way connecting regional and global industries with the competitive edge in the marketplace.
