Presenting data from the 2017 Global Entrepreneurship and Development Index (GEDI), which measures the quality and scale of entrepreneurial process from 137 countries world-wide, this book provides a rich understanding of entrepreneurship and a more precise means to measure it. In addition to yearly data and comparison, this 2017 edition also explores the digital entrepreneurial ecosystem and provides a detailed analysis of two measurements of entrepreneurship: the GEDI and the Total Early-Stage Entrepreneurial Activity (TEA) measure. Whereas developed countries will be challenged to increase their economic productivity to sustain current standards of living as their populations rapidly age, developing economies will need to integrate more than two billion young adults into the world economy by 2050. How can more than one billion jobs be created in the developing world within this timeframe, especially in the least developed countries, where poverty and massive unemployment are already dominant facts of economic life? How can we measure, monitor, and build the ecosystems to produce such growth? The GEDI is designed to profile national systems of entrepreneurship. It links institutions and agents through a National Entrepreneurial System (ecosystem) in which each biotic and abiotic component is reinforced by the other at the country level. The resulting data gives policymakers a tool for understanding the entrepreneurial strengths and weaknesses of their countries' economies, thereby enabling them to implement policies that foster productive entrepreneurship. The GEDI also helps governments harness the power of entrepreneurship to add these types of challenges. 000827410 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (viewed October 4, 2017). 000827410 650_0 $$aEntrepreneurship$$vPeriodicals. 000827410 650_0 $$aEconomic development$$vPeriodicals. 000827410 7001_ $$aSzerb, László,$$eauthor. 000827410 7001_ $$aLloyd, Ainsley,$$eauthor. 000827410 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z9783319659022 000827410 830_0 $$aSpringerBriefs in economics. 000827410 852__ $$bebk 000827410 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-65903-9$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000827410 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:827410$$pGLOBAL_SET 000827410 980__ $$aEBOOK 000827410 980__ $$aBIB 000827410 982__ $$aEbook 000827410 983__ $$aOnline 000827410 994__ $$a92$$bISE
