Abstract: In Romania the term entrepreneurship became popular after 1990 when private capital companies were brought under regulation. In this context, the terms used in this paper come to supplement or to emphasize the elements necessary to assess the entrepreneurial phenomenon. Thus, in the first part of the paper we have presented besides an evolution of the term “entrepreneur”, a classification according to classical theories, such as the one belonging to Adam Smith, as well as current classifications regarding changes in the business environment, namely the exponential growth of businesses in online field due to the Internet. At the end of the paper we have presented a statistical analysis of the entrepreneurial phenomenon in Romania and on European or international level, according to several criteria, such as attitude towards entrepreneurship and the development of a business, age groups and the attitude towards entrepreneurship, the reasons that influence the development of a business, etc.
