This purpose of this thesis is to show that microfinance is the ideal solution to the poverty problem by using research and evidence from …

Entrepreneurial Spirit In Government Managed Enterprises: Evidence From The U.S. General Aviation Airports, Vitaly S. Guzhva, Massoud Bazargan, David A. Byers

Our findings support the literature that argue …
