The webinar will present several methodologies for analyzing entrepreneurship and start-up activity in a country. Speakers will present case-studies based on the work implemented in Suriname, Serbia, Sri-Lanka, Bangladesh, Palestine, Lebanon and other countries. These methodologies (or diagnostic tools) help not only understand constraints to innovation and entrepreneurship, but also compare performance vis-a-vis peer countries. The information they provide represents a necessary step toward a response – policy reforms, change in program design and resourcing, or a specific intervention, helping policy practitioners identify suitable entry points, justify interventions, and achieve consensus for key priorities and a course of action.
