Abstract

The objective of this work is to analyze the differences between entrepreneurial teams and individual entrepreneurs. Our study explains the performance differences between them in terms of innovation, internationalization and employment generation. Our hypotheses are tested using a sample of more than 66,000 entrepreneurs of 82 countries that have participated in the GEM project between 2014 and 2016. Our results indicate that entrepreneurial teams have better results than individual entrepreneurs, especially in contexts of high economic freedom.
