Abstract

Due to The Great Recesion many goverrnments had to promote entrepreneurship as a solution of unemployment problems. In Spain, where there is a big structural and coyuntural unemployment, The Great Recesion heavily increased its size. Owed to this the entrepeurship became import in policy. In this work we study the determinants of entrepreneurship in La Rioja , a region situated in the north of Spain. We will focus on studying microdata from the GEM database. And we will use econometric approach using OLS in 9 regressions. In addition, we will propose some policies.
