Abstract
Entrepreneurship remains a priority in most economies, and particularly so in
Kazakhstan as recognized in the 2050 Strategy document proclaimed by President Nazarbayev. Evidence
shows that the growth engines of an economy are not large companies, but the many entrepreneurs
who start new businesses. NUGSB has recently joined GEM (The Global Entrepreneurship Monitor),
the largest ongoing research project on Entrepreneurship in the world. The project assesses the motives
and aspirations of (potential) entrepreneurs and the attitudes of those around them, i.e. the climate for
entrepreneurship in society [1]. Nearly 100 "National Teams" from every corner of the globe participate
in the project. NUGSB is now the National Team of Kazakhstan.
