I am involved in the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) project as research director and co-author of the GEM Global report. The Global Entrepreneurship Monitor research program provides an annual assessment of the national level of entrepreneurial activity. Initiated in 1999 with 10 countries, GEM expanded to 55 countries in 2009. The research program, based on a harmonized assessment of the level of national entrepreneurial activity for all participating countries, involves exploration of the role of entrepreneurship in national economic growth. There is, further, a wealth of national features and characteristics associated with entrepreneurial activity. See www.gemconsortium.org. Click on the picture to download the latest report |

During 1998-2004 I worked at EIM Business and Policy
Research. EIM carries out business and
policy related research on enterprise issues in various fields such as
entrepreneurship and business development, employment, ICT, innovation,
internationalisation and administrative burdens. Dutch version: www.ondernemerschap.nl |
|
Goal of the series is to promote the use of evolutionary
economics in the field of economic geography. Submissions of both theoretical
and empirical papers are welcome. |
