Chapter Chapter 7 in Public Policies for Fostering Entrepreneurship, 2009, pp 133-148 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Nowadays entrepreneurship is a hot topic in the majority of countries. The subject has become popular and is a golden rule for politicians, opinion makers, and top businessmen, who praise the potential of entrepreneurial activity, be it small, medium, or large enterprises, be it in innovation, in teaching, in the creation of employment, or even in helping in economic revitalization and strengthening of countries’ competitive capacity. Interest in the topic has reached the entire political spectrum, and it was adopted by countries’ governments, independently of them being more left or more right wing. The majority of governments are investing a significant volume of time and money for the development of support programs as a stimulus and to the development of new enterprises.
