The National Commission on Entrepreneurship was established to enable successful entrepreneurs to enlighten policy makers about the critical role entrepreneurs play in driving our nation's economic growth and describe those factors that foster entrepreneurship. NCOE's mission is to insure that policy makers consider entrepreneurship when they make crucial public policy decision and to help fashion a policy agenda that will protect and promote our flourishing entrepreneurial economy.
Public policy has a big impact on entrepreneurship.
Federal, state and local policies affect entrepreneurship. A recent study by the NGA highlights innovative programs that some states have created to insure that entrepreneurs can continue to start, grow and flourish. Entrepreneurs create wealth, pay taxes, create jobs, reinvest in other businesses and their communities, allow the U.S. to compete successfully in a global market and improve our quality of life.
