Abstract: Abstract The objective of this study is to analyse the profiles of young Spanish entrepreneurs, the main reasons driving them to engage in entrepreneurial activities and the obstacles they encounter in three specific sectors: health, beauty and sport. To this end, a survey was produced and circulated among young Spanish entrepreneurs belonging to the principal young entrepreneur associations in Spain. The results have made it possible to determine the profiles of young Spanish entrepreneurs in these three sectors, their principal motivations and the obstacles they have encountered, as well as to provide further information about this significant group.
