Reader's Guide

This publication presents indicators of entrepreneurship collected by the OECD-Eurostat Entrepreneurship Indicators Programme (EIP). Started in 2006, the programme develops multiple measures of entrepreneurship and its determinants according to a simplified conceptual framework that distinguishes between the manifestation of entrepreneurship, the factors that influence it, and the impacts of entrepreneurship on the economy or society. A set of indicators of entrepreneurial performance is proposed for understanding and comparing the extent and type of entrepreneurship that take place in different countries. This approach reflects the idea that analysts should go beyond enterprise creation or any other single measure to study entrepreneurship as entrepreneurs and entrepreneurial forces can be found in many existing businesses. Understanding the dynamism these actors exert on the economy is as important as understanding the dynamics of start-ups.
