| Summary: | This study is based on the technique Interpretive Structural Modelling
(ISM), in order to delineate a flowchart that shows the main ten
barriers (and their relationships) influencing the development of
Portuguese Entrepreneurship Ecosystem. Through a process of
modelling it was possible to reach a graphical representation that
shows the operating sequence of these barriers in order to
understand the logic of their relationship. The results show a model
represented by a flowchart consisting of 10 barriers, three of them
that are positioned at the base of the model have political-legislative
features with high level of range in all the remaining barriers, so a
political involvement, carefully measured, could contribute to the
improvement of the Portuguese Entrepreneurship Ecosystem. The
final model is a useful tool that can be adopted by key decisionmakers and players in the Ecosystem in order to optimize the
selection of measures enabling the entrepreneurial activity in
Portugal. |
