Impact of entrepreneurs
In the United States, about 600,000 - 800,000 new small businesses are started each year
Most succeed, many fail
These businesses are the foundation for employment growth
Firms of fewer than 20 employees generate the majority of net new jobs in the US
These are ~98% of all businesses
These new jobs are an immediate and significant boost to the economy
