Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to examine the influence of national cultures and different business policy models on the degree of entrepreneurship and entrepreneurship orientations of managers in the Asia-Pacific: East Asia, Southeast Asia and South Asia. The results indicate that an economic policy, which is open and supportive of business development, stimulates greater entrepreneurship.
