Abstract

In Startup Rising: The Entrepreneurial Revolution Remaking the Middle East, Schroeder reminds one that the collective GDP of the Arab world is larger than Russia's and India's and nearly twice that of China on a per capita basis. The Middle East has more than 350 million people whose disposable income has grown by 50 percent over the last three years and whose Internet appetite has been expanding at a speed that rivals that of any other region in the world. More than 40 percent of those online denizens say that they would like to start their own businesses. Sultanate of Oman is no exception and eyeing towards more entrepreneurial activities. The government is also keen to facilitate entrepreneurship development. In this backdrop, the aim of this paper is to understand entrepreneurship with reference to Sultanate of Oman, a stable balanced developing economy in Middle East. With rising trends towards entrepreneurship, and hotbeds of entrepreneurial activity emerging therein, the core of the paper is to provide insights of entrepreneurship in Sultanate of Oman through case approach.
