Abstract
In this article entrepreneurial literature is combined with industrial district literature to try and explain regional success in an Irish industrial sector. A new concept called 'interpreneurship' is introduced as an explanatory concept for regional success in an Irish manufacturing case study, the wooden furniture industry in County Monaghan. A number of conclusions are drawn regarding the extent to which the interpreneurship concept is valid, and the authors recommend that this is an important concept for further research.
