“The report analyses the challenges and opportunities facing young enterprises and their owners throughout the MENA region. It provides a balanced review of the arguments for and against an active government
policy supporting high growth enterprises, drawing on evidence and experience from OECD
countries. New Entrepreneurs offers a number of policy recommendations to support the creation of high growth and future high-impact firms with the potential to make a dynamic contribution to job creation and economic growth. Finally, the report recognises that policy initiatives in favour of enterprise creation depend on the specific circumstances and capacities of individual governments. Constant evaluation of new and existing policies is a key ingredient of success.”
