Vocation and entrepreneurial impact : a quantitative approach

This project proposes to focus on the notion of entrepreneurial impact in the broadest sense by considering the multi-dimensionality of the impact of entrepreneurial activity, both at the economics level and in terms of innovation, at the social, environmental and territorial levels. The aim is to address the question of the antecedents of entrpreneurial impact, focusing on the link between vocation and entrepreuneurial impact. The main difficulty in exploring this question is the lack of data to link vocation to entrepreneurship and the different dimensions of entrepreneuial impact. Access to data through the CASD represents a unique opportunity to build a database that meets these requirements. Thus, our project is the first, to our knowledge, to explore this issue quantitatively.
