NUS study warns of entrepreneurship-social equity inverse link

A study authored by Prof Wong Poh Kam from NUS Business School and Director of the NUS Entrepreneurship Centre, and Ms Ho Yuen Ping, Research Manager at the Centre, concluded that when a government decides to promote entrepreneurship, it should also incorporate policies to mitigate the possibility of increasing income inequality. This is especially since the sole pursuit of entrepreneurship could have a negative and untoward effect on social equity.
