Description
Entrepreneurship and business development continue to be hampered by inequality of opportunities. These
entrepreneurship gaps are costing economies in missed opportunities for job creation, growth, and innovation. Underrepresented and disadvantaged groups in particular face institutional barriers, limited access to finance, lack of skills, and small networks. Inclusive entrepreneurship policies have been implemented to address these gaps, but more government action is needed to unleash the untapped entrepreneurial potential in the population, including tailored support for underrepresented groups.
