Academics and practitioners often only evaluate a business's success by looking at the qualities of the people and ventures involved. However, people and ventures do not operate in a vacuum – climate change and its call for sustainable transition, the digital technology revolution, and crises like the Covid-19 pandemic or the global financial crisis demonstrate the enormous impact environmental factors have on business.

Davidsson’s External Enablement Framework is an attempt to develop better tools for seeing and using the potentials for entrepreneurial action and success offered by changes to the business environment. During this practitioner-oriented seminar, the participants learned how external impact factors can be applied to make a business more successful.
