This report constitutes the fifth assessment and review of the state of entrepreneurship in New Zealand. This research project is sponsored by Te Puni Kökori / Ministry of Mäori Development and was undertaken by Te Whare Wänanga O Wairaka (Unitec New Zealand) and by Te Wänanga-O-Raukawa, each of whom contributed teams of researchers and financial support. This year we call our report GEM Aotearoa New Zealand. It is largest-ever survey of entrepreneurial activity amongst an indigenous community in the world. We compare Mäori prevalence rates, motivations, innovativeness and growth expectations, socioeconomics traits and subjective perceptions in a global context. The kaupapa of GEM Aotearoa New Zealand is twofold: To measure Mäori levels of entrepreneurial activity and compare them with the general New Zealand population and with other countries and to uncover factors that are associated with Mäori entrepreneurial activity.

Kuratko. Part III are five hundred teaching slides that I have developed that can be used in any aspect of entrepreneurship education.

This study extends our current knowledge of the social entrepreneur and the activities he/she is involved in and contrasts them with our understanding of commercial entrepreneurs. For the purpose of generating empirically-driven propositions, we bring together insights from current empirical investigations and insights from unique large-scale data from the GEM 2009 survey on social entrepreneurship covering Belgium and The Netherlands. Findings are refined with insights from interviews with key informants in both countries. In general the generated propositions seem to indicate a rather fragile entrepreneurial profile in terms of effort put into the organisation or activity, self-confidence, ambition in terms of employment growth, funding from the sale of products and services and progression to more mature stages of the entrepreneurial process. Furthermore, social entrepreneurs are more likely to be younger, more highly educated and they perceive legitimation of entrepreneurs in so.
