24 Findings U.S. continues to rank high in entrepreneurial activity though composition of entrepreneurial activity is changing More from established businesses The gender gap is narrowing Necessity-driven entrepreneurship increased while rates of opportunity-driven ventures dropped significantly Relative prevalence of high-growth expectations in both earlystage entrepreneurs and established business owners Entrepreneurs: more optimistic about future but finding business success is becoming more elusive Funding falls Midwest saw the greatest rebound GEM 2010

25 Implications Facilitate Necessity/ Encourage Opportunity Ensure both Stability and Dynamism Look Beyond a Simple Count of Entrepreneurs Ensure Entrepreneurship is Available to All Groups in Society Promote Entrepreneurship Mindset Across Society 25

26 People become entrepreneurs, and in so doing, create sources of income for their families. They bring to life new products and services that provide value and improvements to their communities and to those around the world. As such, they create jobs and contribute to the economic development and comparative advantage of their societies. Thank You
