This paper analyzes the impact of the economic crisis occurred in Spain between 2008 and 2013 on entrepreneurship. It uses data published in the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor Spain reports for the period 2005-2015 to explain the effect of the negative economic situation on a number of key issues among which are: (a) the values, perceptions and entrepreneurial skills of the population, (b) entrepreneurial activity and its characteristics –in terms of socio-demographic profile of the entrepreneurs and their aspirations– and (c) the context in which the entrepreneurial process unfolds.
