ORGANIZATIONS
The National
Commission on Entrepreneurship
“The National Commission on Entrepreneurship was created to
focus public policy on the role of entrepreneurship in the national
economy and to articulate policies that will foster its continued
growth. The NCOE is a resource for anyone interested in entrepreneurship
and public policy.” (http://www.ncoe.org/)
The National
Foundation for Teaching Entrepreneurship
“NFTE's mission is to teach entrepreneurship to low-income
young people, ages 11 through 18, so they can become economically
productive members of society by improving their academic, business,
technology, and life skills.” (http://www.nfte.com/)
United States
Association for Small Business and Entrepreneurship
“USASBE is a non-profit organization devoted to continuing
management education for entrepreneurs and small business. USASBE
was founded on the belief that enlightened small business management
is necessary for successful profitable small business, that successful
small businesses are essential to our national economy, and that
entrepreneurship needs to be fostered to stimulate a dynamic and
growing economic system.” (http://www.usasbe.org/)
Global Entrepreneurship
Institute
“We are a non-profit digital think-tank devoted to helping
high tech entrepreneurs around the world. Since 1999, we have helped
more than 50,000 entrepreneurs through our books, software, and
educational services. We work as a non-profit "open source"
online resource for high tech entrepreneurs.” (http://www.gcase.org/)
Global Entrepreneurship
Monitor
“The Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) research program
is an annual assessment of the national level of entrepreneurial
activity. Initiated in 1999 with 10 countries, expanded to 21 in
the year 2000, with 29 teams in 2001, it expects close to 40 national
teams in 2002. The research program, based on a harmonized assessment
of the level of national entrepreneurial activity for all participating
countries, involves exploration of the role of entrepreneurship
in national economic growth. Systematic differences continue, with
few highly entrepreneurial countries reflecting low economic growth.
There is, further, a wealth of national features and characteristics
associated with entrepreneurial activity.” (http://www.gemconsortium.org/)
