Environmental Factors and Entrepreneurship Development in Nigeria

Abstract

The influence of environmental factors on entrepreneurship had been known as important in the entrepreneurship literature. This study aimed at identifying the environmental factors that affects entrepreneurship development as well as the overall effect of environmental factors on entrepreneurship development. Primary data was adopted to generate data from 132 entrepreneurs and owners of business enterprise in Kwara State. The chi-square (χ2) distribution was the statistical tool used in testing the acceptability or otherwise of the hypothesis posed for this study. Findings revealed that environmental factors have an overall significant effect on entrepreneurship development in Nigeria. It was also discovered by the findings that all the environmental factors dimensions have a significant relationship with entrepreneurship development in Kwara State, Nigeria. Thus it is recommended that communities should identify aspect of their culture which hinder entrepreneurship development and make necessary adjustment. Finally, the issue of infrastructural facilities should not be seen as the sole responsibility of the government.
