Abstract: This paper examines results from two start-up business support programs in the West of Scotland, from the perspective of entrepreneurial learning. Both programs provided support for an 18-month period to selected clients. Although, there were differences in the programs in terms of design, in terms of impacts there were many similarities. The paper examines some policy implications for entrepreneurial learning of developing business start-up support programs.
