Entrepreneurial Goals Common Among Young in Arab States

 

WASHINGTON D.C. -- In Arab League countries, there appears to be no shortage of entrepreneurial aspirations among young people. Across 20 countries and the Somaliland region of Somalia, a median 27% of young Arabs who were not already business owners said they intended to start a business in the next 12 months. Intent to create a business ranged from a high of 45% in Sudan to a low of 9% in Jordan. The findings are based on "The Silatech Index: Voices of Young Arabs," a report prepared in partnership between Gallup and Silatech.
