The Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) is a worldwide annual research project that measures the degree of entrepreneurship in more than 40 countries.  As for Belgium and Flanders the research is done by Vlerick Leuven Gent Management School.

Last year, Portugal was the absolute champion of Europe and Belgium was at the end of the European list together with Austria. Are you curious about what the ranking looks like this year? Would you like to know what kind of companies have been founded? How innovative they are? How many jobs they create? And how international entrepreneurs are?
