It is an interesting concept isn’t it? In this radio call, James Caan of the Dragon’s Den cites the stats. He then said that if every small business in the country employed just one person then it would be sufficient to take us out of the recession.
Interestingly, Caan also remarked that it is more common for Asians and ethnic minorities to start their own business? This certainly seems to be the trend worldwide. But why? What is it in the Anglian culture that makes the mainstream population turn their nose up at entrepreneurial activity? Food for thought for sure!
