Entrepreneurship at a Glance 2014
Recommendation
Entrepreneurs who dare to venture into the unknown are exemplars of human ingenuity. Their entrepreneurship forms the golden goose of economic activity and proves an indelible marker of sophisticated capitalism. And yet, hard data on the impact of entrepreneurship are in short supply. The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) stepped into this breach by aggregating some 20 indicators from 30 industrialized countries on the health of the economic and operational state of these nations’ entrepreneurial ventures. The rigidly structured report falls short of sweeping insight, but it provides stoic reportage that preserves the statistics’ analytical significance. getAbstract recommends this datacentric report to policy makers, analysts, economists and students looking for cross-country gauges that can help provide a greater understanding of entrepreneurship around the world.
