“…37,38 Research that focuses on the comparative study of variables related to entrepreneurs considering different socioeconomic contexts generally repeats the analysis of these variables. [8][9][10][11][12][13]39 However, it is the researchers' criterion to incorporate into the analysis of these comparative studies variables that are considered an expression of the degree of need that encourages entrepreneurs to assume the risk and effort involved in undertaking. Among these variables are: Number of people dependent on the entrepreneur, age at which the work activity begins, destinations of short-term personal expenses, destinations of long-term expenses; In addition, the use of the time available for work is considered.…”

“…These studies are developed from various angles, for example, Pejic ´-Bach et al 8 guide their studies to analyze the incidence of internal variables to the entrepreneur such as: personal attitudes, subjective norms and perceived behavior, control can affect the intentions to convert in entrepreneur. For its part, Ropega 9 carries out a comparative study between the similarities and differences between experienced entrepreneurs and a novice entrepreneur and how this manifests itself through other variables such as the use of external networks, financing management and management internal organization.…”

Entrepreneurship is an important part of any economy today regardless of its level of development. However, not in all contexts do entrepreneurs operate in the same way, nor are they motivated by the same factors. This research seeks to identify possible coincidence factors and differences between entrepreneurs that operate in different contexts from the point of view of their historical evolution, the duration of these and the economic and social model applied in the countries. Specifically, a comparative study is carried out between entrepreneurs from the republics of Ecuador and Cuba considering various variables such as: personality characteristics (attitude to failure, risk, perseverance and innovation), use of the available time fund for work in entrepreneurship; Impact of the environment in relation to: government regulations, taxes, level of competition and availability of suppliers, as well as the structure of personal expenses projected in the short and long term that entrepreneurs assume as a stimulus for their actions. For the development of the study, a description of the behavior of the variables was initially made and later, by hypothesis testing, to verify differences and similarities between both populations. The study allowed us to identify common and divergent aspects between both populations analyzed. Similarly, it showed how differences in the administrative and financial environment in which entrepreneurs operate generate changes in their priorities and projections.

“…Entrepreneurs founding new start-ups have specific stronger leadership behaviours, such as vision, financial acumen and networking, than non-founders who managed start-ups (Applegate et al, 2016). Entrepreneurship comprises two categories: habitual entrepreneurs that currently or previously owned several new businesses and novice entrepreneurs with no previous business experience but currently own or part-own a new business (Ropega, 2020).…”

The aim of this paper is to establish the influence of parental socio-economic status on profitability and growth of first-time founders in Germany. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 20 first-time founders to establish their socio-economic status, parental influence on their success as founders, and the impact of parental socio-economic status on their financial success. The main findings showed that the majority of participants believed that high socio-economic status of parents had a significant positive effect on the financial success of new start-ups, although those from lower socio-economic backgrounds could also succeed. The characteristics of unequal social status were often expressed and the status of German as a nation with low social mobility confirmed. However, the extent to which financial support and context networks supported founders from high socio-economic status families was difficult to ascertain as founders were often unwilling to admit its actual influence. In contrast, the parental influences on values and positive attributes relating to their success were more freely discussed. Based on the revenues and valuation of the start-up companies, two trends for first time founder success were identified: the most successful founders had parents with high socio-economic status; some very successful founders demonstrated high social mobility, which is contrary to the existing data that social mobility in German is very low.

Entrepreneurship is a key driver of economic growth and a generator of employment opportunities in all modern economies across the world. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are the engines of modern entrepreneurship. In the Republic of Croatia, SMEs are indispensable to boost employment and economic growth. Numerous economic activities have been slowed down due to the coronavirus pandemic, and some have even been completely halted. In these extraordinary circumstances, not only in the Republic of Croatia but also all over the world, an entrepreneur must be proactive and able to promptly adapt to this new situation. The purpose of this article is to investigate the entrepreneur's position in the Republic of Croatia and to identify key problems entrepreneurs face during the coronavirus pandemic. As indicated by the research results, the coronavirus pandemic has drastically altered business activity conduction and entrepreneurship. For their businesses to survive these new, everyday challenges, many companies are forced to adapt their supply to market demands, introduce business informatization, lower the product and service prices and invest in employee education.
