The Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) is a research project initiated in 1997 by the London Business School (UK) and Babson College (USA). It examines the activities of business development in over 60 countries around the world. The School of Business Administration Fribourg (Haute Ecole de Gestion HEG), and in particular, its Entrepreneurship and SME Institute, are responsible for leading the project on Swiss territory. All former Swiss and international reports can be found on the GEM internet site.
