Entrepreneurship represents an interesting way of developing professionally and personally: people have different levels of aptitudes, and they are led to be entrepreneurs for various motivations. As in other studies (Grilo and Thurik, 2004; GEM, 2005), we equate self-employment to entrepreneurship: those workers that provide income for themselves in an independent way. Our research was carried out with the Chamber of Commerce’s New-Entrepreneurial-Service in Verona, a free service that offers informational and training services to aspiring entrepreneurs. The objects of the research are: to quantify how many users have become entrepreneurs, to understand processes and difficulties encountered in becoming entrepreneurs, and to identify variables that can influence successful enterprise creation.

Abstract
Entrepreneurship represents an interesting way of developing professionally and personally: people have different levels of aptitudes, and they are led to be entrepreneurs for various motivations. As in other studies (Grilo and Thurik, 2004; GEM, 2005), we equate self-employment to entrepreneurship: those workers that provide income for themselves in an independent way. Our research was carried out with the Chamber of Commerce’s New-Entrepreneurial-Service in Verona, a free service that offers informational and training services to aspiring entrepreneurs. The objects of the research are: to quantify how many users have become entrepreneurs, to understand processes and difficulties encountered in becoming entrepreneurs, and to identify variables that can influence successful enterprise creation.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
