Abstract

This study investigated the impact of internet development, including internet usage, fixed broadband subscriptions, and secure internet servers, on entrepreneurial activity, proxied by Global Entrepreneurship Index (GEI). This study, which covered 109 countries from 2015 to 2019, used the fixed panel regression method. The result showed that internet usage and secure internet servers have significant negative effects on the GEI. In the case of the economic classifications, the internet variables have a significant negative effect on the global entrepreneurship index in emerging and developing economies. However, in the case of advanced economies, internet variables have no significant effect on GEI. The effect of digitalization through internet technology must be considered for policymakers to manage the entrepreneurial ecosystems. The integration between entrepreneurship and internet could maintain the higher technological development to increase the higher output.
