The Role of Entrepreneurship in Economic Recovery
Introduction
The state of entrepreneurship in the U.S. has been a source of concern for many years. Entrepreneurship is much more important to job creation than previously believed, and many countries have recognized the importance of entrepreneurship and have adopted policies to promote it. It’s time for the U.S. to start supporting entrepreneurship as a means of leading itself out of recession

The state of entrepreneurship in the U.S. has been a source of concern for many years. Entrepreneurship is critical to economic growth and job creation, but it appears that fewer Americans are starting businesses today than at any time since the 1970s.
In fact, we rank dead last among developed nations on measures like business startup rates and new firm formation rates — and our ranking is getting worse over time:
Entrepreneurship is much more important to job creation than previously believed.
Entrepreneurship is much more important to job creation than previously believed. In fact, it’s the most important source of job creation in the United States and around the world. Entrepreneurship is also one of California’s greatest assets: its economic growth rate outpaced that of other states from 1995 to 2005 — and entrepreneurship was responsible for 73 percent of all new jobs created during that period!
Many countries have recognized the importance of entrepreneurship and have adopted policies to promote it.
Many countries have recognized the importance of entrepreneurship and have adopted policies to promote it. The United Kingdom, Germany and Sweden are some examples of this. However, there is still much more that can be done by governments in order to foster a culture of innovation and growth within their economies. In fact, according to a recent report by the World Bank Group’s Doing Business project released last year (2017), Hong Kong ranked first among 190 countries while New Zealand came second on their list based on measures such as ease of starting a business; access to electricity; paying taxes; trading across borders etcetera.

Entrepreneurs are the leaders of tomorrow, and they will be responsible for building our economy. But it’s not just about creating jobs: entrepreneurs also help grow industries, create new products and services, and generate value for society.
Entrepreneurship is a key driver of economic growth because it allows people to turn their ideas into profitable businesses. Entrepreneurship creates jobs by providing opportunities for people who want to start their own companies or work for others’ startups; this drives down unemployment rates while also boosting tax revenue through increased productivity and wages earned by employees as well as profits gained by investors (such as venture capitalists).
Conclusion
Entrepreneurship is a key component of economic recovery, and we need to start treating it as such. In the past, entrepreneurship has been seen as something that happens in Silicon Valley or on Wall Street — but today’s entrepreneurs are everywhere and form the backbone of communities across America. They’re also responsible for creating jobs that support families and communities across the country, yet their needs go largely ignored by policy makers who aren’t aware of how much they contribute. We hope this article will help raise awareness among policymakers about how important entrepreneurship is to our economy and encourage them to take action on behalf of entrepreneurs everywhere
