Book excerpt: Research Paper (postgraduate) from the year 2014 in the subject Leadership and Human Resources - Generation Y, Generation Z, Royal University of Bhutan (Royal Institute of Management, Thimphu), course: Post Graduate Diploma in Public Administration (PGDPA), language: English, abstract: The purpose of the study is to examine the role of MSMEs in solving unemployment problem and to find the unemployment trend. The unemployment problem is rising every year and especially youth unemployment is increasing at alarming rate. The study covers Thimphu area whereby a total of 351 samples were determined for the purpose of the study however the response rate was 82.05% with 288 responds qualifying for the analysis. Descriptive analysis was used and the findings reveal that most of the business owned by youth entrepreneurs employed more people though their initial investments were very low. The study also shows that most of the present business owners has plan of expanding their business in future which will create more jobs. From the studies, it shows that unemployment rate in Bhutan fluctuates and is mainly because of change in the supply and demand in the job markets. It also shows that despite high unemployment rate in the country, preferences for job among the youth remain same. They prefer to join civil servants followed by corporations, NGOs and self-employment or entrepreneurship as the last option. From this preferences of job and trend of high unemployment rate in the country, it can conclude that there is no refugee in the country nor can say that there is entrepreneurial effect as the entrepreneurship culture in the country is in the verge of developing, therefore entrepreneurial effect can only be tested after some years when the entrepreneurship culture in the country is fully developed.

Download or read book Micro Small and Medium Enterprises MSMEs in India written by Jaynal Uddin Ahmed and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) have emerged as a highly vibrant and dynamic sector of the Indian economy over the years. MSMEs not only play a crucial role in providing large employment opportunities, at comparatively lower capital cost than large industries, but also help in the industrialization of rural and backward areas, thereby reducing regional imbalances and assuring more equitable distribution of national income and wealth. MSMEs are complementary to large industries as ancillary units and contribute enormously to the socio-economic development of India. The sector is significant to the manufacturing output, employment, and exports of the country. However, MSMEs face a number of problems which have resulted in their retarded growth. Inadequate working capital, a shortage of trained personnel, and obsolete technology are the major barriers to the growth of MSMEs in India. This present volume provides an exhaustive analytical account of the functioning of MSMEs in India. It discusses their role in the country's economy, policies, and programs of the government to promote them, and the problems faced by them in the context of globalization and liberalization of world economies.

Download or read book MSME and Business Entrepreneurship English written by Navneet Singh and published by Navneet Singh. This book was released on with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: MSME stands for Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises. These are businesses that fall below certain thresholds of size, turnover, and investment. They play a crucial role in economic development by fostering entrepreneurship, generating employment, and promoting inclusive growth. Here’s how MSMEs and business entrepreneurship intersect: Starting Point for Entrepreneurs: Many MSMEs begin as entrepreneurial ventures. Entrepreneurs often start small and grow their businesses over time. MSMEs provide a platform for budding entrepreneurs to test their ideas, gain experience, and establish themselves in the market. Innovation and Creativity: MSMEs are known for their agility and ability to innovate. Entrepreneurship within these enterprises often drives new ideas, processes, and products. This innovation can lead to competitiveness and growth within the sector. Job Creation: MSMEs are significant job creators, especially in developing economies. Entrepreneurship within MSMEs not only generates employment for the entrepreneurs themselves but also for a multitude of employees hired as these businesses expand. Economic Contribution: MSMEs contribute to the overall economic output of a country or region. Through entrepreneurial activities, these enterprises can contribute to GDP growth, exports, and tax revenues, thereby bolstering the economy. Challenges and Support: Entrepreneurs in the MSME sector face unique challenges such as access to finance, market access, regulatory compliance, and technology adoption. Governments and organizations often provide support through policies, financial aid, training programs, and incubation centres to nurture entrepreneurship within MSMEs. Role in Local Development: MSMEs are often deeply embedded in local communities. Entrepreneurial activities within these enterprises can stimulate local economies, improve infrastructure, and raise living standards by providing goods and services locally. Overall, MSMEs and business entrepreneurship are closely intertwined, with entrepreneurship serving as a driving force behind innovation, economic growth, and social development within the MSME sector.

Aspects of this book would be useful to students, researchers, practitioners, and also those interested in economic-related sustainable development goals (SDGs), given the importance the United Nations (UN) has assigned to MSMEs for taking a lead in employment creation, and poverty eradication.

Download or read book Young Entrepreneurs in Sub Saharan Africa written by Katherine V. Gough and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-02 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Young people in sub-Saharan Africa are growing up in rapidly changing social and economic environments which produce high levels of un- and underemployment. Job creation through entrepreneurship is currently being promoted by international organizations, governments and NGOs as a key solution, despite there being a dearth of knowledge about youth entrepreneurship in an African context. This book makes an important contribution by exploring the nature of youth entrepreneurship in Ghana, Uganda and Zambia. It provides new insights into conceptual and methodological discussions of youth entrepreneurship as well as presenting original empirical data. Drawing on quantitative and qualitative research, conducted under the auspices of a collaborative, interdisciplinary and comparative research project, it highlights the opportunities and challenges young people face in setting up and running businesses. Divided into a number of clear sections, each with its own introduction and conclusion, the book considers the nature of youth entrepreneurship at the national level, in both urban and rural areas, in specific sectors - including mobile telephony, mining, handicrafts and tourism - and analyses how key factors, such as microfinance, social capital and entrepreneurship education, affect youth entrepreneurship. New light is shed on the multi-faceted nature of youth entrepreneurship and a convincing case is presented for a more nuanced understanding of the term entrepreneurship and the situation faced by many African youth today. This book will be of interest to a wide range of scholars interested in youth entrepreneurship, including in development studies, business studies, youth studies and geography, as well as to development practitioners and policy makers.
