Approaching the Entrepreneurs’ Point of View for the Public Sector

Abstract Entrepreneurship is an important factor in economic development and the reduction of unemployment in any country. In Greece, entrepreneurship faces various challenges over time, which are usually influenced by the functioning of public administration and legislation. On the other hand, the reformation of the public sector does not seem not to be fully in step with the development of entrepreneurship. Structural and operational weaknesses due to both external and internal factors make it necessary to identify for these factors to lead to the restructuring of public administration. A quantitative data analysis is therefore of interest, which will be drawn from targeted questionnaires addressed to entrepreneurs involved in winemaking, a dynamic industry, with high growth rates in the last twenty years. The purpose of this work is to investigate the point of view of the entrepreneurs in the wine industry, regarding their transactions with the public sector. According to the satisfaction levels of entrepreneurs, the public administration needs improvement at both structural and functional levels, in order to contribute to the further development of entrepreneurship.
