The Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) provides an annual assessment of the entrepreneurial activity, aspirations and attitudes of individuals across a wide range of countries. The Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) began in 1999 as a joint project between Babson College (USA) and London Business School (UK). One of the primary features of GEM is the facility it provides to compare countries with each other across a range of variables pertinent to entrepreneurship. GEM is recognised as one of the foremost studies of entrepreneurship, providing measures of the involvement of individuals in entrepreneurial activity and is one of the richest resources of information on the subject, publishing a range of global, national and ‘special topic’ reports on an annual basis.
