GEM Research Questions • Does the level of entrepreneurial activity vary between countries? By how much? • What makes a country entrepreneurial? • What are appropriate policies for enhancing entrepreneurial activity?
GEM Scotland Aims • How Scotland compares to the UK and other small high income nations? • Which factors account for Scotland's level of entrepreneurial activity? • What are the implications for public policy?
GEM 2004 Method & Measures • Representative sample: 2000+ adults per nation • Standardised cross-national data: 34 nations % of adults actively starting + running a new = a business (nascent (owner/managers entrepreneurship of businesses < 3½ rate) yrs old) Total Entrepreneurial Activity (TEA)
2004 - Summary Highlights • • Scottish TEA rate stable at 5. 1% (2003: 5. 5%) Attitudes have improved over 2000 – 2004, particularly among women Scottish and UK female TEA rates now equal In-migrants and immigrants 4 times more likely to start new businesses than life-long residents Remote regions have relatively high TEA rates Scottish informal investment rate matched the UK rate (1. 3%) but still less than half the rate for small high income nations Launch of Fresh Talent initiative and the Social Entrepreneurs Fund

Policy Implications • In-migrants make a major contribution to new business activity: scope for increasing TEA rate through Fresh Talent Initiative • Reduced capitalisation and increased selffunding of new businesses suggests a capital gap remains • Widen Business Start-up Scheme to over 30 s • Social Entrepreneurs Fund should help to spur “thinkers” into “doers” • Scottish Enterprise assists one third of new businesses: is this sufficient?
Attitudes to entrepreneurship by gender Perception of opportunity to start a business in the next 6 months has increased… Male Female …with female levels recovering to 2000 rates
