ABSTRACT

The Global importance of growth and entrepreneurship support underlines the need for future inter-country research and analysis. Additionally, it is accepted in the literature that the international context moderates young people's decisions toward entrepreneurship. Thus, in this study, the institutional context of two data points is taken to understand the differences in perception towards entrepreneurship among the young. T-test comparative analysis is done based on the data from young entrepreneurs’ surveys in Spain and Russia. The study confirms the existence of significant variations in the perceived effect of the institutional context factors between respondents from different countries. Also, exist polarity in the relative importance of the factors analyzed. Further theoretical contributions and practical recommendations, specifically for the policymakers, are suggested.
