Abstract

We describe a new firm-level survey, the Annual Survey of Entrepreneurs (ASE), conducted by the Census Bureau in partnership with the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation and the Minority Business Development Agency. We provide the motivation for this new survey, context in terms of related surveys and products, and details about its sampling methodology and content. The paper is intended to inform potential users of publicly-available information from the ASE as well as researchers interested in using micro-level data through the Federal Statistical Research Data Center network. We close with a brief description of the ASE’s successor, the Annual Business Survey.
