The influence of culture on entrepreneurship is a popular topic in many countries. This paper examines the empirical linkage between national culture and entrepreneurial activity and provides a practical analysis of the motives of entrepreneurs. First, this paper assesses the traditional hypothesis that entrepreneurship is facilitated by cultures where there are high levels of individualism, low levels of uncertainty avoidance, low levels of power-distance, and high levels of masculinity. The 2011 Global Report by Global Entrepreneurship Monitor contained an analysis of country-level data for 48 nations. Contrary to the conventional view, individualism and Total Early-Stage Entrepreneurial Activity Rates (TEA) were found to be negatively related. There were no relationships with TEA and the other three national cultural dimensions---power distance, masculinity, and uncertainty avoidance.

520 $a The influence of culture on entrepreneurship is a popular topic in many countries. This paper examines the empirical linkage between national culture and entrepreneurial activity and provides a practical analysis of the motives of entrepreneurs. First, this paper assesses the traditional hypothesis that entrepreneurship is facilitated by cultures where there are high levels of individualism, low levels of uncertainty avoidance, low levels of power-distance, and high levels of masculinity. The 2011 Global Report by Global Entrepreneurship Monitor contained an analysis of country-level data for 48 nations.

There were no relationships with TEA and the other three national cultural dimensions---power distance, masculinity, and uncertainty avoidance.
520 $a This paper, then, explores the correlation between the motives of entrepreneurs and national culture. As expected, entrepreneurs in developed countries would start businesses with improvement-driven opportunity motives as opposed to necessity motives. On the contrary, the necessity motives seem to have a greater influence in developing countries because there are few other work options. This paper proposes a new conceptual framework for how entrepreneurial motives relate to national culture. This paper suggests that in each individual country, the ascendancy of improvement-driven opportunity motive over necessity motive is associated with high levels of individualism, low levels of masculinity, and low levels of uncertainty avoidance. For internal validity, economic level of each country has been controlled through the analysis.
