The White Paper is divided in four parts, each of them corresponding to one of the four main areas that the World Entrepreneurship Forum is tackling:

• Accelerating the emergence of high-growth and innovative companies, as a way to providing jobs for all, and making a significant impact on a global scale;
• Encouraging entrepreneurship at the ‘base of the pyramid’, because it will help eradicate poverty, secure a decent life for all, and ensure a safer life for all;
• Promoting new models of entrepreneurial cities, to address the massive urbanization move that will occur in the next forty years;
• Educating entrepreneurs for the world, throughout life from the very earliest stages of childhood, using formal and informal channels.

Each section of the White Paper provides the global context, a set of recommendations, best practices to illustrate these recommendations, and ends with a set of concrete commitments for the year to come.

Among the recommendations, the creation of a global network of high-growth incubators, the use of common retail spaces aimed at BoP entrepreneurs, a dedicated accreditation system for entrepreneurship education, or the creation of a global high-growth entrepreneurship training programme for professors.
