Abstract: This paper investigates factors affecting the speed of business creation by entrepreneurs moving from developed to developing countries (DDE). Understanding the speed and how to aid in business creation should help spread and implement environmental reforms. By understanding the factors known to aid DDE firm creation, governments can stimulate and implement targeted reforms. In our study, we considered certain known factors: opportunity, embedded networks and education/experience. Data was obtained through questionnaire and post-questionnaire interviews administered to China-based DDEs. The results indicate embedded networks and previous entrepreneur experience affect the speed of venture creation. Pertaining to climate change, our results support DDEs as an efficacious choice to help governments achieve sustainable benchmarks.
