Abstract

Sustainable entrepreneurship distinguishes itself from conventional entrepreneurship by creating environmental and social value, in addition to economic value. To create a better understanding of what characterises individuals who become sustainable entrepreneurs, the effect of key perceptual variables is investigated in comparison to conventional entrepreneurs. Using a 2015 sample of 16.205 entrepreneurs from the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor, a binomial logistic regression is employed, making a distinction between sustainable entrepreneurs and conventional entrepreneurs. The results suggest that sustainable entrepreneurs have higher levels of opportunity recognition and self-efficacy. In practice, this contributes to policy that can stimulate the development of sustainable entrepreneurship.
