There is an unequivocal relationship between entrepreneurship and economic growth and, as a result, this phenomenon has been the focus of political decision-making in many countries. In this sense, given the popularity of incentive programs for entrepreneurship, this article seeks to investigate what factors influence entrepreneurship, taking into account, in particular, government support.
The results obtained from the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor database, after the use of multivariate statistical techniques. The results suggest that there are four groups of factors influencing entrepreneurship: government policies; financing and monetary means; taxes and R & D.
