About the Global Entrepreneurship Index
The Global Entrepreneurship Index assesses the conditions that help businesses and entrepreneurs start, operate and grow across 137 countries, looking beyond entrepreneurial activity itself to factors such as access to finance, human capital, infrastructure, governance and market opportunity.
The 2026 edition builds on changes since 2016, not only where countries rank today, but how their competitive position has changed over time, with research presented through UK, US and Europe market editions alongside a shared global picture.
