Trends Point To Future Entrepreneurial Activity
A new white paper from The MicroEnterprise Journal documents the trends that point to the evolution of an Entrepreneurial Economy.
Sidney, NY (PRWEB) October 12, 2004 -- For the first time since the Industrial Revolution, technology and innovation have combined to change the very meaning and nature of "work."
That is the overall message of a newly released white paper by Dawn Rivers Baker, editor and publisher of The MicroEnterprise Journal, entitled The Entrepreneurial Economy.
According to the white paper, large corporations have grown more inclined to use contracting and partnering to manage the value chain, while firm size data suggests that small businesses are trending smaller. This combination of trends, besides implying future opportunities in domestic outsourcing for microbusinesses, suggest that the future engine of "job creation" may turn out to be self-employment.
"The relevant point is that policy makers are going to have to change their perspective on such issues as job creation, measurements of employment, and small business policy, if they want to support the changes that are happening in the economy," says Baker.
The Entrepreneurial Economy is available as a free download from The MicroEnterprise Journal web site at http://www.microenterprisejournal.com/whitepaper.html.
