Abstract

Understanding the business environment and attitudes towards entrepreneurship is a prominent issue for the whole economy and society, as businesses create the financial and non-financial value that our economy and communities need. The development of enterprises and their innovation potential can contribute to solving many economic, environmental, and social problems. A deeper understanding of the current state of entrepreneurs and the business environment can provide useful insight and resources for policymakers. Since 1999, the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM), the world’s largest entrepreneurship survey, has provided reliable data on entrepreneurial activity in the participating economies, and the state of the entrepreneurial ecosystem. From 2020 onwards, Budapest Business School will represent Hungary in the global survey, in which renowned universities from all over the world participate. The first domestic data collection since 2016, now conducted by the BBS Budapest LAB Entrepreneurship Office, took place in 2021. The survey involved a representative questionnaire of 2014 adults aged between 18–64 years and interviews of 36 selected experts. The present report summarises the Hungarian results of the research, providing information on the entrepreneurial atmosphere, activity, and ecosystem in Hungary
