Like any policy area, entrepreneurship comes with its own jargon, acronyms and buzzwords. To help demystify it, we’ve created the A to Z of Entrepreneurship – a guide to key concepts, policies and initiatives shaping the UK’s entrepreneurial ecosystem.
We hope it serves as a useful resource for politicians, policymakers, researchers and anyone looking to better understand the landscape of entrepreneurship policy.
