Abstract

ABSTRACT The topic of the paper is the formation of new firms by people living in non‐urban settings. The theoretical background is the social development model which assumes that individuals change throughout their lifetime and that their interactions and social contexts shaper their entrepreneurial characteristics. Furthermore, the characteristics at the immediate environment are connected with the entrepreneurial characteristics of the population. The results suggest that positive development is cumulative, and that rural areas located close to urban ones are in a better position than others in this respect.
