THE NATIONAL ENTREPRENEURSHIP CONTEXT INDEX IN THE PERIOD 2018- 2020: AN OVERVIEW

Abstract

An important pillar of national development, entrepreneurship is defined by the context in which it exists. The specific situation of economies around the world can also be explained using the national entrepreneurship context as being one of the important criteria. The aim of the paper is to present the evolution of the top ten countries in the world factoring in the new National Entrepreneurship Context Index (NECI) introduced by the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) in the period 2018-2020. The research methodology used is quantitative and is based on the research of secondary data from sources such as articles and reports. The findings show a relatively intense competition amongst the top economies in the world and, referring to regions, the battle is still undisputed between Europe and North America with East and South Asia
