(2) According to the 2010 Small Business 
Economy: A Report to the President, ‘‘small busi-
nesses—those with fewer than 500 employees—are 
generally the creators of most net new jobs, as well 
as the employers of about half of the nation’s private 
sector work force, and the providers of a significant 
share of innovations, as well as half of the nonfarm, 
private real gross domestic product.’’. 
(3) The April 2009 World Economic Forum 
Report entitled ‘‘Educating the Next Wave of Entre-
preneurs’’ recommends that countries transform 
their educational systems to integrate entrepreneur-
ship education at all levels and across curricula in 
recognition that ‘‘entrepreneurship education is es-
sential for developing the human capital necessary 
for the society of the future.’’. 
(4) ‘‘Educating the Next Wave of Entre-
preneurs’’ argues that the skills and knowledge 
learned through entrepreneurship education—such 
as problem solving, economic principles, and negotia-
tion—are critical to success in the 21st century 
global economy, in which competition is fierce and 
markets and jobs evolve at a rapid pace.
