Carried out just before the 2010 general election, this survey asked over 700 Shell LiveWIRE members / young entrepreneurs what they thought the next Government could do to support small businesses in the UK, what the main hindrances to starting up were, their thoughts on the global recession, and who they thought was the most enterprising nation in the world.
‘The Changing Face of UK Entrepreneurism’ explored the changing meanings of entrepreneurship in the UK over the past 25 years, from the early 1980s to the present day. The research investigated the perceptions and experiences of entrepreneurs themselves, rather than the general public, in order to understand how they themselves make sense of their role.
