Abstract

In this book, I look at entrepreneurship from the macroeconomic, country-wide perspective. The key question is the one relating to the role that entrepreneurship plays in the process of socioeconomic development. The late 20th and the early 21st centuries brought a significant shift in the predominant paradigm regarding the drivers of economic development. The dominance of large corporations was increasingly disputed and researchers and policymakers turned their attention towards the role of young and/or small firms in the economy. These trends were closely linked to a shift observed particularly in developed countries, which have already created a strong manufacturing base and modern service sectors, and have moved towards a knowledge- and innovation-based economy. Entrepreneurship has been a key driving force behind these radical changes.

The Ambitious Entrepreneurship Programme includes an academic textbook for aspiring entrepreneurs (in Polish) Przedsiębiorczość dla ambitnych. Jak uruchomić własny biznes, (Ambitious Entrepreneurship. How to Launch Your Own Business) (Cieślik 2006), Warsaw: WAiP and a dedicated electronic platform. http://www.nowybiznes.edu.pl. Both the textbook and the electronic platform have been used extensively in various training and advisory programmes for prospective entrepreneurs.

Although widely used in the literature, the above segmentation is not perfect for delimiting the category of emerging economies. For example, India, a major representative of the latter group, is classified in the lowest category of factor-driven economies in the classification by stage of development.
