“…Therefore, the State should ensure the adoption of new, improved measures, so as to attract even more and better innovations, to increase entrepreneurial activity and originate more economic growth. This being so, the interconnection between innovations and economic growth contributes to increased entrepreneurial activity in countries (Castaño et al 2015;Acs et al 2018;Tunali and Sener 2019).…”

This empirical study analyses the effects of institutional, economic, and socio-economic determinants on total entrepreneurial activity in the contexts of developed and developing countries. It fills a gap in the literature, regarding the lack of empirical studies about the relationships among entrepreneurial activity, corruption, commercial freedom, economic growth, innovativeness, inward foreign direct investment, unemployment, households, and non-profit institutions serving households (NPISHs)’ final consumption expenditure, age dependency ratio, education index, and life expectancy at birth. The empirical application uses annual panel data for the 2003–2018 period, with a total sample of 21 countries, analysed in a two-stage empirical application, including preliminary analysis and a quantile regression model. New empirical evidence is provided, revealing a significantly positive role played by commercial freedom, innovativeness, inward foreign direct investment, households, and NPISHs’ final consumption expenditure and education on entrepreneurial activity. Corruption, unemployment, age dependency ratio, and life expectancy at birth have a significantly negative influence on entrepreneurial activity. In terms of implications, greater government control is recommended, in order to foster the quality of nations’ institutional environment. Additionally, suggested is the launch of new incentives to stimulate research and development activities aimed at registering international patents with a global impact, sourced from new ventures and transnational collaboration.

“…• The existing entrepreneurial literature still lacks typological diversity in the discussion of perceptual enablers. The current mainstream empirical designs include: exploring the relationship between the perceptual factors of entrepreneurs and EI in a single country (Tunali & Sener, 2019), and exploring the perceptual factors in regions with high geopolitical/economic similarities (Dileo & Losurdo, 2016;Brás, 2020;Vodă et al, 2020). • The time-lag data used in existing empirical studies, restricting the theoretical value of informing emerging policy.…”

With the deepening of research on entrepreneurial activity motivation, academic discourse has been cognizant of the incompleteness of macro-contextual factors and micro-personality in explaining entrepreneurship momentum. The interaction mechanism between context and potential nascent entrepreneurs has gradually become a theoretical hot spot in the 21st century. This article aims to elaborate on the emerging debate about perceptual factors of entrepreneurship and identify salient perceptual enablers of entrepreneurial activities for global nascent entrepreneurs. In order to bring empirical breakthroughs to the table, this article employs nascent entrepreneurial activity data of more than 50 countries from 2011 to 2019 gathered by Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM). The author built a pooled cross-sectional dataset to unveil the perceptual determinants shared by new entrepreneurs worldwide and employed pooled OLS regression. The study confirms the significant positive influence of the 'perceived opportunity' (PO), 'perceived capability' (PC), and 'immersion in entrepreneurial culture/social norm' (CSN) and negative influence of 'fear of failure' (FF) on national entrepreneurial activity. This empirical article is a prompt exploration of entrepreneurial enablers. Among the existing empirical milestones, few attempts mentioned shared perceptual needs among entrepreneurs on various continents. This paper introduces an emerging cross-national variable structure grounded on existing conceptual elements. It contributes to corresponding knowledge by updating the time span/contextual background, expands the scope of theory applicability, and recommends an inclusive environment practically. When reflecting on the entrepreneurship context and policies, this research can serve as a priori insights for evaluating entrepreneurial support and proffer 'perceptual criteria' for comparison between cross-national policies.

“…The socio-economic development of nations and regions is dependent on their ability to compete in the global market place, their capacity for wealth generation, job creation and social welfare for the citizenry in a sustainable manner (Farinha, et al, 2018;Morozova, et al, 2019;Tunali and Sener, 2019). Entrepreneurship is deemed as a very popular concept in development economics in achieving this objective and has long been viewed as a tool for enhancing economic growth, competitiveness and job creation even in difficult times (Audrestch, 2018;Urbano et al, 2019;He, et al, 2019).…”

“…A country's economic growth can be measured in terms of an increasing gross domestic product (GDP) per capita, improvement in competitive index in the global market place and an increasing capacity for wealth and employment creation (Farinha, et al, 2018;Morozova, et al, 2019;Tunali and Sener, 2019). Empirical studies to quantify the impact of global entrepreneurship on economic growth are surprisingly few and in particular, global entrepreneurship is a relatively emerging area of study in the academic field (Guo and Jiang, 2019;.…”

The objective of this study was to conduct a critical review of entrepreneurship in a global / international context and to determine, based on empirical literature reviews whether it has been an effective tool for economic growth. The study adopted the Systematic Quantitative Assessment Technique (SQAT) in identifying and reviewing peer reviewed journal articles, conference papers and book chapters published between the period 2009-2019 which had empirically examined the link between entrepreneurship on a global basis and economic growth. The study was categorized into three (3) geographical groups based on national income levels – low income, medium income and high income countries which also correspond with their respective levels of economic development. Based on the evidence and review thereon conducted by this study, it was concluded that global entrepreneurship has been an effective tool for economic growth and that the degree of effectiveness increases with national income levels or degree of economic development.
