It is viewed as the major conducive factor to foster economic growth (Schumpeter, 1934) significance of entrepreneurs in the process of development of a country, Abraham Maslow (1968), a Psychologist known for his theories regarding human needs, pointed, “The most valuable 100 people to ISSN 2277-9089 but rather 100 entrepreneurs.”(Cited in Ahmed, 1982) development. Nickell (1996) and Nickell et al (1997) found a positive impact of entrepreneurial activity (as measured by increase in the number of competitors) on total factor productivity growth (Nickell1996 and Nickell et al 1997). Reynolds (1999) in his study in US context showed the greater degree of entrepreneurial activity (measured in terms of turbulence- entry and exit of the small businesses) at the regional level to higher rates of growth for regions (Reynolds 1999). Audretsch and Fritsch (2002) relate start-up activity in German regions to subsequent growth Porter (1990) viewed entrepreneurship ‘at the heart of national advantage’ (Porter, 1990, p. 125). prospect, Bangladesh, along with South Korea and Mexico, has been included by Goldman Sachs in their Global Economic Paper, December, 2005 as one of the “Next 11” countries that have the potential to become global heavyweights and match the dominance of the BRIC countries (Brazil, Russia, India and China) (Sobhan, and Azhar, 2006)
