Discovery Theories

Discovery theories examine how entrepreneurial opportunities exist as objective market imperfections, information asymmetries, and unmet needs awaiting recognition by alert individuals. Spanning Kirznerian alertness, niche optimization, and modern individual-opportunity nexus models, these frameworks focus on the cognitive, systematic, and environmental mechanisms that enable actors to perceive and capture untapped value.
