PDF: The Entrepreneurial Advantage of World Cities

31-page PDF (still to read), "The Entrepreneurial Advantage of World Cities," subtitled "Evidence from Global Entrepreneurship Monitor Data."

From the abstract:
QUOTE
Recent discussions in the Economic Geography literature increasingly focus on creative cities and the importance of creativity for achieving economic growth. Considering the increased attention on urban areas it is not surprising that the regional dimension of entrepreneurship is a subject of great interest. We set out a framework encompassing the individual process between entrepreneurial perceptions and entrepreneurial activity and demonstrate how the urban environment can have an impact on this process.

"How to Foster Tech Entrepreneurship" by Vivek Wadhwa (Business Week)

Report on research by Vivek Wadhwa, "a former tech entrepreneur, ...Wertheim Fellow at the Harvard Law School and an executive-in-residence at Duke University." Turns out that the idea that tech entrepreneurs are predominantly Mark Zuckerberg's age are exagerrated/ wrong.

Another interesting finding is that lack of health insurance holds many older potential entrepreneurs back. (Yet Canada has affordable universal health insurance, but the US easily overtakes it in the entrepreneurship category.)

Additional insights also re. education and training.
