The Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) is a research initiative that has been collecting and analyzing data on entrepreneurship since 1999. The initiative aims to provide insights on the entrepreneurial patterns that prevail in participating economies, allowing organizations and policy makers to make evidence-based interventions to improve and enhance the entrepreneurial ecosystem. GEM collects data on individuals' perceptions, aspirations, and intentions to act and behave entrepreneurially, both individually and globally. The initiative has teams in over 100 countries, and its outputs are valuable for governments and educational institutions.
