“…This gives rise to the need to take into account the accelerating factors that serve to translate EGIs into EIIs at different stages of the entrepreneurial processes in the tourism industry. For example, according to Castaño, Méndez, and Galindo (2016), in countries with uncomplicated administrative systems and higher financial support for research and development, education, and small to medium-sized enterprises, there is a stronger entrepreneurial culture. However, the opposite is the case in Iran, according to the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor annual report (GEM, 2016).…”

The primary objective of this study is to develop the pioneering version of Krueger's (2009) integrated model of entrepreneurial intention (EI) and to empirically test the new model in explaining individuals' intentions of entrepreneurial activities. The data were collected by the self-reported in-person and electronic questionnaires from a population of tourism students from several universities in Iran. The results of partial least squares estimations indicate that desirability is the main determinant of entrepreneurial goal intention (EGI), followed by selfefficacy, feasibility, opportunity, attitude, and collective-efficacy, while social norms do not influence EGI. Also, EGI strongly influences entrepreneurial implementation intention. Concerning the modification effect, the impact of perceived opportunity on EGI tends to increase when an individual has a high propensity to act. The findings provide policy makers with important insights into how to nurture tourism students' EIs through educational programs.

Saraiva & Gabriel (2016) According Miranda et al (2017), the intervention of the public authorities is crucial and most important to improve the attitude of an individual to the development of his entrepreneurial intention in his academic learning, and therefore, it would be interesting to increase systems So that they not only look at their performance in terms of research, but also the transfer of research results to production (patent licensing, collaborative projects, spin-off creation, etc.…”

The significant importance of entrepreneurship for the economic development, job creation and innovation have increased the concerns of researchers and decision makers at different levels for the understanding and investigation of the factors that could have an impact on the level of entrepreneurial activity. In fact, differences in entrepreneurial activity and entrepreneurship are substantial, persistent and distinct from their background in different nations and / or regions, especially in Europe. Theoretical studies and empirical studies confirm that the entrepreneurial activities of individuals are the main drivers of the development of entrepreneurship, namely in terms of economic growth, mainly through the contribution to the creation of new jobs, the development of competitiveness and innovations at the enterprise.For this purpose, we used two Global Databases Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) of the year 2015, which were duly adapted and thus created the database for the analysis of this study, having as justification performed literature review considered the variables necessary for this purpose.Results reveal that the key determinants of the entrepreneurial intention in the European countries are: "perceived capacity" by the individual; the "entrepreneurial intention" itself which will, in fact, influence the "rate of nascent entrepreneurship"; the "governmental and political factors" in relation to the respective "financing for the entrepreneur", and the "basic education and training" in entrepreneurship which influence "research & development".

“…By studying the policy and entrepreneurship development status of the target region for nearly six years, it is considered that the favorable policies have a significant effect on entrepreneurship [6]. Maria Soledad believed that creating a good entrepreneurship environment is conducive to encouraging individual entrepreneurship [7], and he uses a three-factor model to empirically analyze the impact of incubator policies on the development of entrepreneurship firms [8]. Romanelli believed that the availability of resources in the environment affects the survival and development of enterprises, and also affects the ability of new ventures to integrate into the environment [9].…”

Studying the urban entrepreneurship environment has guiding significance for the development of urban economy and employment. Based on the PSR (Pressure-State-Response) model framework, this paper constructs an index system for evaluation of urban entrepreneurship environment, and uses the multi-factor weighted method to systematically quantitatively analyze and comprehensively evaluate the state of entrepreneurship policies, service systems, and hardware facilities, and use GM(1, 1) model to predict the development trend of urban entrepreneurship environment in Guangzhou. The study shows that the policy measures to optimize the entrepreneurship environment have effectiveness, time lag and accumulation effect, and the government's response measures are the core factors for the stable development of the urban entrepreneurship environment. It is expected that the entrepreneurship environment in Guangzhou will continue to improve in the future. Finally, it is pointed out that optimizing the urban entrepreneurship environment should start from innovation, attracting talents, increasing financial support, and highlighting regional industrial characteristics to form an entrepreneurship economy.
