Kauffman Study: Young People Want to become Entrepreneurs Despite American Recession

An August 2010 Harris Interactive® survey, commissioned by the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation, posed questions about entrepreneurship to 5,077 U.S. young people ages eight to twenty-four. The results show that business ownership continues to capture the imaginations of America’s youth, particularly for those who know a successful entrepreneur personally.
