A Survey entrepreneurship in Ireland 2016.
Project Report.
Global Entrepreneurship Monitor.(GEM).
A survey of entrepreneurship in Ireland, using the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor data. Data is collected from a representative sample of 2,000 adults. Key findings include that Ireland had relatively high rates of entrepreneurship in 2016, as measured by the TEA index.
The levels of entrepreneurship in Ireland have now returned to the levels observed pre-recession. In many developed European economies, such as France, Germany, Spain and Sweden rates of entrepreneurship are much lower than in Ireland. Rates of entrepreneurship in Ireland are more similar to the US than, for example, Germany. Extensive data on Ireland relative to 24 peer European countries, Australia, Canada, and the US is presented.
