The entrepreneurial ecosystem is comprised of a wide array of institutions and resources that contribute to the development of entrepreneurship on a local or municipal level. These components have led to the creation of clusters of entrepreneurial success and economic growth, such as Silicon Valley (Palo Alto, California) or Route 128 (Massachusetts).
====Academic Research====
:Dan Fehder's new paper "Startup Accelerators and Ecosystems: Complements or Substitutes?" uses a regression discontinuity analysis on admission scores to the MassChallenge accelerator to find that accelerators do have a meaningful impact on an entrepreneurial venture's ability to access local resources.

===Incubators===
*'''Serial entrepreneurs and previous VC-backed firms''': individual and firms that have found success in the entrepreneurial space, and are likely to engage in entrepreneurship in the future
*'''Universities''': research institutions, that include not just the practice of innovation by members of the university, but also the university's interactions with entrepreneurs, spin-outs, technology transfer offices, and other mechanisms of interaction with the entrepreneurial space
