研究了科特迪瓦个人选择自雇创业和创业成功的决定因素，发现学习过程（通过年龄、职业经验、学徒或正规教育）提升创业能力并降低风险，但金融约束仍是主要障碍。
This article analyses the determinants of individuals’ choice for self‐employment and entrepreneurial success in Cote d'Ivoire. Entrepreneurial activity is found to be undertaken by individuals who succeed in increasing their entrepreneurial abilities and reducing the risk of starting a business through a learning process that takes place through ageing, professional experience, and apprenticeship or, alternatively, formal education. The learning process takes place both before and after entry into the industry, as firms grow into a larger size. However, financial constraints continue to play a major restraining role for entrepreneurship and firm growth.
