Abstract
Many authors have attempted to draw together a perspective on entrepreneurship that captures the influences of the environment. However, the description of the relationships between the entrepreneur, their firms and the broader environment or ecosystem, has varied among theorists. Based on the variations in viewpoint, this paper examines the aspect of entrepreneurial ecosystem measurement and stops to ask who makes use of the measures and why is it important for them to measure the entrepreneurial ecosystem? The contribution of this paper is to illustrate a holistic view of an entrepreneurial ecosystem for measurement purposes, and focus on the variations in measurement based on our international comparative perspectives from the USA, Australia, France and Japan.
