The national mobilization of entrepreneurialism—the deliberate and systemic effort to harness and amplify entrepreneurial energy across a nation—has shaped the economic trajectories of global powers like the United States, China, and India. Over the past century, these nations have employed distinct strategies to ignite entrepreneurial ecosystems, often with remarkable success.
