Global Entreprenurship Monitor 2009

Since the first report was published in 1999 by scholars at Babson College and London Business School, the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor has developed into one of the world’s leading research consortia concerned with improving understanding of the relationships between perceptions of entrepreneurship, entrepreneurial activity, and national economic growth.

The 2009 report looks at a global overview on entrepreneurship in 2009, with a special section on the impact of the global 2008-2009 recession on entrepreneruship.

The report also delves into a global comparison of social entrepreneurship. Of particular interest is the section mapping out the prevelance of early-stage social entrepreneurship activity and also the sectors that social entrepreneurs enter.
