The GEM survey offers an in-depth analysis of the various social, cultural, political, and economic factors that impact the entrepreneurial landscape and activities, serving as a comprehensive framework for understanding national and entrepreneurial conditions. These factors play a crucial role in shaping individuals' entrepreneurial decisions and the success of starting and operating businesses. GEM's survey delivers unparalleled insights into a nation's entrepreneurial characteristics, surpassing the information available from traditional statistical sources. The study also explores individuals' and societies' attitudes towards entrepreneurship, alongside the aspirations and qualifications of people at different entrepreneurial stages. By examining these aspects across countries, GEM identifies key drivers and obstacles for entrepreneurship, enabling stakeholders to cultivate a supportive entrepreneurial ecosystem.

Within this period, Slovenian entrepreneurship experienced significant changes, ranging from innovation promotion and startup development to economic crisis-related challenges. Analysing historical trends is essential for pinpointing effective strategies and areas requiring enhancement. Ultimately, the GEM Slovenia national report's milestone edition offers invaluable insights for shaping policies and fostering an entrepreneurial environment conducive to growth and progress.
