Abstract
This chapter deals with possible policy action to foster business start-up culture and positive attitudes towards business foundation in OECD countries. The formulation of recommendations for political action presupposes that the interactions between diverse factors of influence, start-up related mindset and business foundation activities are known. For this reason, theoretical reference is made first to the relationship among culture, attitudes and foundation activity. Then, empirical results and a model are presented. Subsequently reference is made to the situation in East Germany and - as far as available - to experience with policy initiatives gained in OECD countries.
