Abstract

Objectives: (1) to describe the research conducted by the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM), (2) to map its use in Brazilian publications, and (3) to exemplify its application in public policies and other forms of support for entrepreneurship in different countries. Methodology: It is a bibliographic survey of Brazilian studies supplemented by examples of GEM use in other countries. Main findings: Some types of data and results usage from GEM prevail: citations in the theoretical framework or in the introduction/contextualization of published studies; inclusion in the final list of references, but not in the main text; and indirect reference through the citation of previous studies that used GEM. The finding of Gimenez and Inácio Júnior (2017) of a lower presence of GEM data usage for specific studies in the surveyed articles was replicated. Relevance/originality: The historical background of GEM implementation in Brazil is presented, along with the update of results in Brazilian entrepreneurship studies and examples of GEM's impact on the formulation of actions and public policies in various countries. Theoretical-methodological contributions: The scarcity of more sophisticated uses of GEM's database in Brazilian studies is indicated. Therefore, it is recommended to explore its longitudinal data and to increase the number of studies exploring GEM in addressing specific entrepreneurship topics, as well as to expand the use of GEM data to guide the formulation and monitoring of public policies.
