Purpose - The growing number of studies shows that government policies and measures are critical in determining entrepreneurship levels of regions.

This paper aims to explore the importance of the government policies and measures, along with supply and demand-side determinants in regional entrepreneurship in Turkey and explains the convergence of entrepreneurship among two distinct periods corresponding to changes in the government policies and measures concerning entrepreneurship.
