Abstract: Abstract The Norwegian PSED (NO-PSED) was designed to explore the prevalence and characteristics of potential and actual business founders in Norway, as well as attitudes towards entrepreneurs in the Norwegian context. The focus emphasized business-gestation activities, their sequences and frequencies, and how they are related to the propensity of actually starting a new business. The original objective was to examine the relationships between activities in the start-up process and performance of new businesses in terms of profitability and growth. For reasons to be explained later, these issues received limited attention.
