Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation Richard Bruton T.D. recently launched the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) Report for Ireland for 2010. The report, sponsored by Enterprise Ireland, confirms that Ireland is highly entrepreneurial. Despite a decrease in the level of early stage entrepreneurial activity this year (6.8%) reflecting the current economic challenges, the rate of early stage entrepreneurial activity in Ireland continues to be one of the highest within Europe. The rate of established entrepreneurs among the adult population (8.6%) is also high, on a par with Australia (8.5%) and slightly ahead of the US (7.7%).
