The New Entrepreneurship International (GEM) dataset contains annual harmonized data on early-stage entrepreneurial activity since 2001. The abbreviation GEM stands for Global Entrepreneurship Monitor and is the common name for this international survey. In addition, various indices measuring attitudes and preferences towards entrepreneurship are provided. The online database contains some of the principle outcomes of the global study, also expressed in the annual GEM Global Report. Besides these data, EIM disposes of an extended set of variables suited for benchmarking entrepreneurship and entrepreneurial framework conditions. The micro data, on which the global assessments are based, are disseminated in EIM's Datalab.
