The Genesis of Entrepreneurialism

  • Chapter
Critique of Entrepreneurship

Abstract

In a speech of 26 January 2004, the UK Chancellor of the Exchequer, Gordon Brown announced plans for a National Enterprise Week, a competition for a European City of Enterprise and a joint US-UK Forum on Enterprise. Commenting, Mr Brown said:

Our proposals on enterprise for this year each add up to something bigger than their individual parts — initiatives that taken together can make a difference, and contribute to a change in culture and attitudes by valuing and celebrating the spirit of enterprise throughout Britain.

Brown, 2004
