Entrepreneurs and the businesses they create have historically been the central drivers of our nation’s innovation and economic prosperity. Jobs created by American entrepreneurs strengthen our democracy in addition to our economy. Recent reports, however, indicate that our grip on successful entrepreneurship is slipping and that our nation’s cultural support for entrepreneurs is eroding. Fewer of our best and brightest are pursuing the path of an entrepreneur.

 

Encouraging and supporting entrepreneurs is an investment in freedom’s future – both at home and abroad. Their success creates jobs, stimulates economies, and is a principal means of converting innovative ideas into products and services that benefit mankind.
