Background
Entrepreneurship has established itself as a determinant bastion for economic growth, with strong implications for regional development. Within the current highly complex conjuncture, overwhelming to a society that is constantly changing , entrepreneurship whilst a true citizenship movement, driven by work, innovation and creativity, is itself a means for overcoming individual barriers and counter the current persistent global crisis.
In the global market entrepreneurs need to be well prepared in order to tackle increasingly aggressive competition. This implies that they possess high qualifications and skills, and know how to use adequately information and communication technologies (ICT). In addition to these characteristic aspects of all qualified entrepreneurs, the institutional environment also seems to play a determinant role. Combined, they may help to overcome problems such as lack of accessibility, rural desertification, info-exclusion, unemployment, decentralization of large urban belts, etc. The regional and local authorities are obliged to carry out the task of catalyzing, attracting and motivating qualified entrepreneurs, providing them, in a stimulating environment, social and communicational infrastructures, financial and fiscal support so that they may develop all types of activities, of which e- work may also play a decisive role.
