“…In case of entrepreneurship, the context-specific self-efficacy represents the self-confidence of an individual in having the required skills, experience and abilities to successfully start-up and run a business.

“…Domestic author´s studies (Zich, 2010;Syrovátková & Verl, 2011;Školudová, 2015;Zapletalová et al, 2015;Mandysová, 2016) have shown that regions across Czechia have much the same problems -small and medium-sized companies are getting older, becoming less connected with public governmental bodies, do not make much use of the publicly available business support, and link with regional business support (Lukeš et al, 2013).…”
