Entrepreneurship represents an innovative and optimistic perspective for economic and social development. By creating new businesses and jobs, entrepreneurship contributes to the reduction of unemployment and it helps increase the standard of living. Entrepreneurship can also be a source of inspiration for young people and the opportunity to reach their potential and pursue their passion. In this regard, the government and the decision-makers should encourage and support entrepreneurial activities through appropriate programs and initiatives. The present study is based on a bibliometric analysis of the entrepreneurial profile. The bibliometric analysis was made on the basis of 1277 scientific articles extracted from the Web of Science database, on the topic of entrepreneurial profile. Data processing was carried out with the help of the VOSviewer software. The results of the analysis highlight the evolution of the subject over the 1991-2022 period, providing a significant picture of the entrepreneurial profile for the researchers in the field.

The economic impact of tourist activity depends largely on the character of the area or space where it is practised (e.g., developed, developing or less developed). It also depends on the administration or, in broader terms, management of this complex activity and finality through consumption. The latter is related to both customer satisfaction and the satisfaction of the travel agency providing services, to the degradation of certain traditions and the disturbance of the economic, social, cultural, demographic and environmental balance in local communities. The globalisation process and the technological evolution determine visible and behavioural changes because competitiveness is related to technological efficiency. Tourism can generate substantial income, thus contributing to regional development and dynamizing the labour market and companies activating in that sector. By allocating various funds, we can improve the quality of services and renovate accommodation facilities, which enhances the popularity of the location and increases income, implicitly. This paper approaches rural tourism and entrepreneurship within a microeconomic approach. It is motivated by the fact that the most common tourist activities are small and medium enterprises, which are not always sustainable enough businesses. Hence, awakening the entrepreneurial spirit is one of the most notable challenges for the actors involved in small and medium enterprise development in rural areas. This paper highlights the role and challenges of small and medium enterprises activating in the tourism field in rural areas. In addition, the paper proposes a way for overcoming the constraints and difficulties imposed by rural communities, based on the connection between the traditional rural community and a human network existing outside the traditional territorial community. This network extending beyond the traditional territorial border may be complementary to the rural community. In this context, strategic cooperation becomes relevant; it is the solution for overcoming the challenges faced by other industries, too. Furthermore, rural tourism allows producers to mobilise (on a wider scale) the local resources redeemed within the mono-farm activities. Thus, they may attain the goal of using and preserving their rural heritage.

From there, it is possible to create a dynamic environment, promote business development and start business activities of the country. This paper first provides a brief overview of the role of education in entrepreneurship.

Tech start-ups and, especially, unicorns have become a hot topic of today business world. Significant amounts of money have been invested in this sector by venture capital funds in the hope of a good return. However, the criteria and determinants of these investments are fuzzy, and the author has identified a gap in the scientific literature. Therefore, the objective of the present paper is to discover the determinants of venture capital investments in tech start-ups. Based on a secondary dataset, a multifactorial regression model is proposed that explains the appetence for investment of venture capital funds into tech start-ups. The model shows that the amount of funding in start-ups will increase as the number of unicorns and exits strengthens.

The relevance of the present research is conditioned by the increased role of small business in the rapidly changing world. Providing a significant contribution to the country’s gross domestic product and employment indicators, small business is highly flexible and adaptive to changes. World experience shows that a government is able to increase the multiplier effect of private entrepreneurship in the country through a system of measures and strategic programs aimed at its support and development. Such actions of the government should take into account the peculiarities of the territory and unique national advantages.

The study assesses the impact of reforms implemented in different periods on the activity rate and survival rate of business entities. These indicators were calculated on the basis of official statistical information. The methods of mathematical statistics were used to calculate these indicators. The results were evaluated using the methods of comparative and system analysis. In addition, changes in the activity rate and survival rate of small businesses due to economic fluctuations caused by the coronavirus pandemic were investigated.
