Towards a theoretical model for adaptive entrepreneurial organisations using genetic algorithms

In particular, we focus on the need for more rigorous theory of adaptation to sort out the comprehensive action lists that have been generated by years of field research by many people. After describing how a basic genetic algorithm model works, and what assumptions drive the model, we develop a series of propositions which specifically link the GA models to earlier findings on entrepreneurial organisations.
