  This paper explores the role of public and private sector teams as they
collaborate to form and manage a community and platform for digital
entrepreneurs in Bahrain. The paper employed the theoretical concept of
boundary spanners to explore the nature of interactions between the two teams
as support digital entrepreneurship and the outcomes that emerged from these
interactions. The findings present the nature of the inter-sectoral
interactions as boundary spanning that contributed to the initiation and
formalization of the community and platform.
