This report provides a data-driven situational analysis of the Entrepreneurship Support Organization (ESO) landscape across Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, and Panama. Based on original data from 75 organizations, it reveals an ecosystem anchored in experience but under strain due to chronic financial precarity and fragmented coordination. While ESOs achieve strong programmatic results, a critical gap remains in connecting early-stage ventures to growth capital.

This report provides a comprehensive situational analysis of Colombia's Entrepreneur Support Organization (ESO) ecosystem. Based on data from 36 organizations, it uncovers a seasoned and inclusive landscape anchored by a strong non-profit backbone. However, it also reveals a "scaling cliff" where support evaporates as ventures mature and a significant gap between programmatic success and access to growth capital.

This report presents a comprehensive overview of the Entrepreneur Support Organization (ESO) landscape in Mexico. Developed in collaboration with Bridge for Billions and ANDE, it explores key challenges, opportunities, and trends shaping the entrepreneurial ecosystem in the country.

The adoption of Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) standards is relevant not only because investors are more inclined to consider them in their investment decisions but also due to their potential positive impact on sustainable development. While ESG implementation is still mostly voluntary, governments around the world are increasingly integrating these standards into their legal frameworks. Thus, understanding how the law supports ESG adoption becomes essential. However, the law alone is not sufficient to ensure that companies apply these standards. Investment is also needed to guarantee that the impact of ESG practices is long-lasting. In this paper we present our findings on how legal frameworks of 10 countries support ESG standards implementation, and what funding alternatives are available, particularly to small and medium enterprises (SMEs).

The OECD Entrepreneurial Ecosystem Diagnostics report introduces a novel framework and dataset to assess and compare entrepreneurial ecosystems across all 38 OECD countries. Rather than producing a single index to rank countries, the report adopts a multi dimensional approach based on three core components: inputs, outputs, and variation. Inputs cover ten essential elements—Institutions, Culture, Networks, Infrastructure, Markets, Finance, Knowledge, Talent, Leadership, and Intermediate Services—captured through composite indexes built from about 40 indicators drawn from OECD statistics and other sources. Outputs reflect entrepreneurial performance, with indicators such as startup rates and business survival. The variation dimension measures how entrepreneurship is distributed socially and regionally, with attention to inclusivity, particularly for women and distribution of startups across regions. Each dimension is tracked at three time points to monitor ecosystem evolution and progress. Designed as a policy support tool, the report provides robust, evidence based insights to identify systemic bottlenecks and guide national strategies. It aims at facilitating informed dialogue and targeted policy action to build dynamic and balanced national entrepreneurial ecosystems. Released as a pilot, this first edition lays the foundation for future iterations, with continued refinement of data and analytical depth to enhance its relevance and impact.
