Since the research took place during the COVID-19 pandemic, it provides special insight into how Romanian entrepreneurs viewed and dealt with the challenges of the crisis.<\/p><p><strong>Aim of the study<\/strong>. The analysis shows the variety of paths entrepreneurs take, how their personal backgrounds connect with their business practices, and how traits like resilience, flexibility, and informal connections help build lasting businesses. The results add to the understanding of opportunity-based entrepreneurship in developing countries and highlight the importance of creating policies that fit the goals and real-life experiences of small business owners.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-513e5574 elementor-align-center elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"513e5574\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm\" href=\"https:\/\/manager.faa.ro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/38m_79_91.pdf\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Full text sources<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pages: 79-91 Introduction.
