S. young people ages eight to twenty-four. The results show that business ownership continues to capture the imaginations of America’s youth, particularly for those who know a successful entrepreneur personally.  \n• Four in ten young people have started or would like to start their own business one day. This number is unchanged from a previous survey conducted in 2007, indicating that the recession hasn’t dampened young Americans’ enthusiasm for business ownership.  \n13-24 year old males (47%) are more likely than their female counterparts (34%) to want to start a business someday or already have.  \n\n|  |\n| --- |\n|  |\n\nNote: An indicates a significantly higher percentage  \nQ5200 BASE: Qualified 8-24 year olds (n=5077)  \n(continued)  \n[www.kauffman. org](www.kauffman. org)  \nResources for Young Entrepreneurs  \nall terrain brain  \n[www.allterrainbrain.org](www.allterrainbrain.org)  \nJunior biz  \n[www.juniorbiz.com](www.juniorbiz.com)  \nteen business forum  \n[www.teenbusinessforum.com](www.teenbusinessforum.com)  \n[Youngentrepreneur.com](Youngentrepreneur.com)  \n[www.youngentrepreneur.com](www.youngentrepreneur.com)  \ncollegiate entrepreneurs’ organization  \n[www.c-e-o.org](www.c-e-o.org)  \ndeca  \n[www.deca.org](www.deca.org)  \nfuture business leaders of america  \n[www.fbla-pbl.org](www.fbla-pbl.org)  \nglobal entrepreneurship Week  \n[www.unleashingideas.org](www.unleashingideas.org)  \nglobal student entrepreneur awards  \n[www.gsea.org](www.gsea.org)  \nJunior achievement  \n[www.ja.org](www.ja.org)  \n[bizKid$](bizKid$)  \n[www.bizkids.com](www.bizkids.com)  \nKauffman campuses  \n[www.kauffman.org/kauffmancampuses](www.kauffman.org/kauffmancampuses)  \nmind Your own business  \n[www.mindyourownbiz.org](www.mindyourownbiz.org)  \nnational collegiate inventors and innovators alliance  \n[www.nciia.org](www.nciia.org)  \nnetwork for teaching entrepreneurship  \n[www.nfte.com](www.nfte.com)  \nstudents in free enterprise  \n[www.sife.org](www.sife.org)  \nnfib Young entrepreneur foundation  \n[www.nfib.com/page/](www.nfib.com/page/)  \nYoungEntrepreneurFoundation  \nYouth Venture  \n[www.youthventure.org](www.youthventure.org)  \nYouth about business  \n[www.youthaboutbusiness.org](www.youthaboutbusiness.org)  \nindependent Youth  \n[www.independentyouth.org](www.independentyouth.org)  \nDo you want to start your own business someday?  \n• Existing business owners have significant influence: Of the young people who know an entrepreneur personally, 46 percent want to start or already have started a business.
