As part of its ongoing efforts to support evidence-based policymaking and promote a thriving entrepreneurial ecosystem, the Jordan Strategy Forum (JSF) has partnered in the development and launch of the Jordan National Report for the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) 2024/25.

The report, launched in collaboration with the Ministry of Digital Economy and Entrepreneurship, the German Jordanian University (GJU), and with support from the German Agency for International Cooperation (GIZ), provides in-depth insights into the state of entrepreneurship in Jordan. It is part of the world’s most extensive study on entrepreneurial activity, offering global benchmarks and national-level data on entrepreneurial attitudes, motivations, challenges, and the overall ecosystem.

During the launch event, JSF, the Ministry, and GJU signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to formalize ongoing collaboration. The agreement aims to strengthen national research capabilities and ensure Jordan’s consistent and high-quality participation in the GEM initiative.

This partnership reflects JSF’s broader commitment to generating actionable knowledge that supports private sector development and sustainable economic growth. By contributing to the GEM report, JSF helps ensure that public and private sector stakeholders have access to reliable, data-driven insights to inform strategic decisions and policy design.
