Entrepreneurship is the key driver of economic growth. The biggest majority of jobs are created by small businesses initiated by individuals with entrepreneurial mindset. Entrepreneurship provides more opportunities to exercise creative freedoms, higher self-esteem, and an overall greater sense of control over one’s life. Therefore, it is believed that a robust entrepreneurial culture will maximize individual and collective economic and social success at local, national, and global levels.
