Dynamic Entrepreneurship Policies in Israel: Lessons for Latin America

This paper reviews Israels early experience with dynamic entrepreneurship programs. Rather than discussing current policies, it focuses on two programs that were at the core of these policies since the early 1990s: the technological incubator program, and YOZMA. It provides new evidence on the success of the technological incubator program and discusses what lessons from these experiences may be useful for the design of dynamic entrepreneurship policies in Latin America.
