For this purpose, we use a survey done by Kauffman foundation. This survey asks business owners about their state’s performance in areas like “ease of starting a business”, “ease of hiring”, “regulations”, and “training and networking programs”. It also asks business owners questions about their firm’s performance and their optimism for the future.enCC BY 4.0нормативні актинормативные документыregulationsділова дружелюбністьделовое дружелюбиеbusiness friendlinessмалий бізнесмалый бизнесsmall businessпідприємництвопредпринимательствоentrepreneurshipтверді показникитвердые показателиfirm performanceArticle
