The Role of Entrepreneurship in Society
Research Findings:
Most new businesses fail, those that survive often do so because the entrepreneur works for little income.
More than 98% of U.S. businesses have fewer than 100 employees.
Most U.S. workers work for small businesses.
The majority of small businesses are owner operated.
Small business is a strong presence in both mature and emerging economies
Small businesses have a strong effect on job creation, innovation, and are important to big businesses.
