I had the great privilege of knowing Professor Harry Matlay for over 25 years as an author, editor, researcher and friend. He was widely respected internationally for his academic work, especially his research on entrepreneurship and education. He supported and encouraged many people early in their careers to publish and advance their research. Many students, researchers, colleagues and friends knew Harry and we all grieve for their loss. With sincere condolences to his family.
