- W3132300503 abstract "There is a significant gap in the conceptualization of entrepreneurial ecosystems in developingeconomies of Sub-Saharan Africa. Despite its prominence and recognition as a globalphenomenon, prominent research on entrepreneurial ecosystems maintains a central gaze onadvanced economies in the Global North, with Silicon Valley in California as the inspiration.Only in recent times have a few promising strands of literature emerged with a focus onstrategies to build entrepreneurial ecosystems in Sub-Saharan Africa. These studies comewithout references to the unique dynamics of ecosystems in institutionally challenged economiesof sub-Saharan Africa. In the present study, I adopt an exploratory analysis of thesoftware ecosystem in Yaba, Lagos, as a case study to underline traditional and unique elementsthat provide support to start-ups within the ecosystem. These distinctive elementssuch as protection from police brutality, a positive reputation, private learning centres andinformality, exist as meso-level support to complement the traditional elements of the entrepreneurialecosystem. Drawing upon existing literature on the formal-informal dichotomy, Ifurther present informality as a unique element from which formally registered start-ups derivesustainability strategies. I contend that informal practices are institutionally preconditionedchoices, caused by the abdication of the government’s responsibilities and exacerbatedby counterproductive state interventions. I contribute a scaffold adapted from Mazzarols(2014) ecosystem framework to depict the core and peripheral elements that provide supportto start-ups within the ecosystem. From this, I deduce an elliptical illustration of formalityand informality as intervening factors to the support received by start-ups within the ecosystem" @default.
