The importance of corporate social responsibility is shaping investment decisions and entrepreneurial actions in diverse perspectives. The rapid growth of SMEs has tremendous impacts on the environment. Nonetheless, the economic emergence plan of Cameroon has prompted government support of SMEs through diverse projects. This saw economic growth increased to 3.8% and unemployment dropped to 4.3% caused by the expansion of private sector investments. The dilemma that necessitated this study is the response strategy of SMEs operators towards environmental sustainability. This study, thus seeks to examine the effects of entrepreneurial intentions and actions on environmental sustainability. The research is a conclusive case study design supported by the philosophical underpins of objectivism ontology and positivism epistemology. Data was sourced from four hundred (400) SMEs operators purposively sampled from the Centre and Littoral regions of Cameroon using structured questionnaire. Data was analysed using the Structural Equation Modelling technique with the aid of statistical packages including: SPSS 24 and AMOS 23. The study revealed that entrepreneurial action has weak positive statistical significant impacts on environmental sustainability; whereas entrepreneurial intention has strong positive statistical significant effects on environmental sustainability. Entrepreneurial intention comprised of self-efficacy and perceived control whereas, entrepreneurial actions involved entrepreneurial alertness and uncertainty. This study concludes that entrepreneurs in Cameroon have sustainable intentions to protect the environment but; the current actions taken are inadequate. This research recommends that entrepreneurs should enhance efforts toward attaining the state of genuine sustainability.

Purpose – This paper aims to report on the level of entrepreneurial intent (EI) in southwestern Cameroon, by developing and using a novel scale that avoids the problems of construct confounds that exist with most EI scales currently in the literature. This scale is also used to measure EI in Canada, as a comparative example of the Western countries typical of previous EI research, to demonstrate the stability of the scale across different cultures. Design/methodology/approach – Data are collected by survey of random participants in Jamaica and Canada. Factor analysis is used to refine the choice of scale elements from this survey. Nested structural equation modelling is then used to confirm the construct validity and to demonstrate construct stability across the two populations. The population scores are then compared by t-test. Findings – A novel ten-item scale is developed and is shown to have a stable factor structure across the two populations. Using this measure, it can be newly seen that, contrary to the expectations for low entrepreneurial prevalence and intention expressed in the literature, there is actually no significant EI deficit in Cameroon. Research limitations/implications – Previous measures of EI in the literature have been seriously confounded by adjacent constructs in the same nomological net, such as beliefs, attitudes and expectations for future behaviours. The research approach taken here demonstrates how these confounds may have led to erroneous conclusions about EI in Cameroon and potentially in other countries. The major limitation of this study is the small sample size, which should be reinforced by replication or extension in future studies. Originality/value – The development of a scale free of construct confounds represents an important step in the refinement of accurate measurement of this foundational construct in entrepreneurship research. This is underscored by the finding that EI in Cameroon may have been misreported in early research due to confounded measurement.

Full textAbstract:
There is a growing appreciation for the value and impact of the informal economy on the lives and livelihood of many in developing economies. A key question for researchers has been whether those operating in it do so out of necessity or voluntarily as opportunity seekers? Unlike previous studies that have examined the informal economy as one large block, this paper took a slightly different tangent. First, we analyzed and identified three distinct sub-groups within the informal entrepreneurial sector — the street walker (st. walker), the street corner (st. corner) and store owner (st. owner) — and then examined each group's motives. Reporting the results of face-to-face structured interviews with 200 informal entrepreneurs in Cameroon (West Africa), the finding is that the majority, especially st. walker and st. corner informal entrepreneurs, are predominantly necessity-driven while st. owner entrepreneurs are predominantly opportunity-driven. Our study also revealed a progression pattern whereby st. walkers do progress to st. corner and ultimately to st. owner entrepreneurs. The assumption is that this does create a learning curve effect in the entrepreneurial abilities and effectiveness of store owners. This is an area for future research. There are policy implications for institutional support that can grow the informal economy into the formal economy.

<p><em>Population expansion and resource availability have been the basis for many entrepreneurial activities around the world. The presence of resources and the continuous drive to provide the ever growing needs of man has been a fortune for many entrepreneurs. Unfortunately, this is not a general rule as there are resources rich areas with little or no entrepreneurial activities. Within the context of this lack of standard rule for the development of entrepreneurship, this paper investigates the determinants of the demand for entrepreneurship in Cameroon using the<strong> </strong></em><em>Johansen co-integration procedures and the Error Correction Mechanism (ECM) based on data collected from the </em><em>World Development Indicators, WDI (2016) and the KOF globalisation index database between 1980 and 2017. After testing for the short and long run relationship, the study found out that population growth, technology and globalization negatively affects the demand for entrepreneurship in Cameroon while economic development positively and significantly determines the demand for entrepreneurship. On the basis of these findings, the study suggests that government should develop and enact policies that will sufficiently regulate the market and create the right business environment for the sustainability of entrepreneurial activities in Cameroon. While recognizing the role of population expansion in providing a market for business, overpopulation should not be tolerated as it becomes a liability in struggling entrepreneurialism. </em></p>

Full textAbstract:
Regulations and institutions influence entrepreneurship. This paper investigates whether government regulations and finance institutions help or hinder entrepreneurial performance at the small firm level in Yaoundé and Douala, Cameroon. Performance is examined in terms of growth in sales revenue, profits and labor employment. The results show that ‘government regulations’ have a strong and significantly adverse impact on sales revenue performance. Furthermore, ‘awareness of source of funds’ is found to significantly amplify sales revenue, and profit performance. Government support is significant to growth in labor employment, sales revenue and profit. However, ‘government regulations’ have a consistently negative influence on performance, even when using different indicators. Consequently, Cameroon should provide a more conducive environment for entrepreneurship to flourish and for small firm sales revenue, profit and employment to grow through the simplification or removal of unnecessary regulations and a provision of greater financial support.

The objective of this study was to analyze the effects of linguistic diversity on entrepreneurship in Cameroon. More specifically, it was a question of analysing the effects of linguistic diversity first on entrepreneurial intention, then on business creation, and finally on the sustainability of the businesses created. To achieve these objectives, the authors used data from a survey of 504 individuals in the cities of Douala and Yaoundé conducted by the Laboratory of Research in Fundamental and Applied Economics (LAREFA) of the University of Dschang and using the binary probit, recursive bivariate probit, and tobit models; it was found that 1) bilingual individuals have a lower entrepreneurial intention than their monolingual counterparts; however, the fact that the individual masters several languages facilitates the transition from intention to action; 2) if linguistic diversity is varied from zero to low or medium level, then the duration of the enterprise will increase by 25 months.

Dans un contexte de controverse sur la capacité des modèles agricoles à répondre conjointement aux enjeux alimentaires, environnementaux et de développement en Afrique, nous analysons les conditions de viabilité d’une agriculture à caractère biologique au Cameroun. La démarche mobilise une enquête par entretiens semi-directifs auprès des acteurs engagés dans les filières de production biologique et une mise en débat des connaissances générées lors d’ateliers participatifs multi-acteurs. Elle met en interaction les connaissances scientifiques, entrepreneuriales et techniques. Les résultats mettent en exergue trois types d’agriculture biologique : l’un certifié suivant les cahiers des charges internationaux ; le deuxième hybride, du fait de sa nature entrepreneuriale et sans certification ; et le troisième, « naturel sans certification », qui renvoie aux pratiques traditionnelles à faible usage d’intrants. En utilisant le cadre d’analyse de la théorie des transitions multi-niveaux, ces trois types permettent de définir des trajectoires possibles d’évolution de l’agriculture biologique au Cameroun.

Full textAbstract:
This study examines skills acquisition and labour market opportunities for graduates of public universities in Cameroon. Four research objectives and one hypothesis guided the study which examined the extent to which social, technical, conceptual and entrepreneurial skills acquired by graduates enhance their employability. The population of the study consisted of 79 graduates with bachelor’s degree, including 29 employers. Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS 2.3) was used to analyse the quantitative data. The quantitative data were analysed using frequency count and percentages while the qualitative data were analysed using a thematic approach with the aid of key concepts/themes, groundings and sampled quotation. The Spearman’s rho test was adopted for the study in testing the hypothesis. Results reveal a significant relationship between skills acquisition and labour market opportunities for graduates (P<0.05). The positive sign of the coefficient value for each of the skills to labour market opportunities (social skills .132*, technical skills .241*, conceptual skills .241*, entrepreneurial skills .393**) shows a positive correlation with labour market opportunities; that is, graduates stand a better chance to be employed when they possess the above-mentioned skills with entrepreneurial skills contributing more, followed by conceptual and technical skills with higher correlation values and lastly social skills. It was recommended that HE institutions should design competency-based curriculum for all programmes to enable graduates acquire the relevant skills. A closer engagement of universities and employers is recommended for better skills productivity.

Partant des résultats des travaux effectués sur les motivations des entrepreneurs en occident et nos observations, nous avons essayé d'expliquer pourquoi les femmes désirent-elles créer des entreprises au Cameroun. Les modes de gestion privilégiés par les femmes entrepreneurs ont également constitués une variable à expliquer par notre recherche. Afin de rendre compte de la diversité culturelle et économique du Cameroun, un échantillon de 117 femmes entrepreneurs issues de différents aires culturelles du pays a été constitué. Les résultats de l'enquête quantitative complétés par les enseignements issus de quatre études de cas nous ont permis de constater que les motivations des femmes entrepreneurs camerounaises ne sont pas significativement différents lorsqu'on prend l'option de la comparaison (femmes entrepreneurs du secteur informel versus femmes entrepreneurs du secteur formel). Les modes de gestion aussi ; les femmes entrepreneurs étudiées privilégient le mode paternaliste et informel. A partir des résultats de l'enquête quantitative, une hiérarchisation des motivations entrepreneuriales a été établie. Un essai de définition d'une typologie originale des femmes entrepreneurs camerounaises en a découlé. Cependant, étant donné que toute hiérarchisation repose sur le principe de la différence, les motivations des femmes entrepreneurs étudiées se sont révélées globalement différents du point de vue de leur degré de pertinence. A l'origine, des facteurs de type personnel, situationnel et environnementalOn the basis of results from studies carried out on the motivations of European and American entrepreneurs and from our personal observations, we have tried to explain why women opt for the creation of their own entreprises in cameroon. Management methods used in priority by women entrepreneurs have also been explained within the framework of this study. In order to account for the impact of the cultural and economic diversity of Cameroon, a sample of 117 women entrepreneurs from different cultural spheres of the country has been considered

Arrivés au Cameroun autour des années 1920, ils ont été étudiés selon trois perspectives, une perspective interne (leur itinéraire par rapport à leur projet migratoire, la constitution culturelle d’une diaspora, etc. ), les empreintes qu’ils ont laissées au pays d’accueil et les interférences qu’ils ont pu avoir avec le pays d’accueil par le biais de leurs entreprises. Minorité visible parmi d’autres étrangers, ils ont été au cœur du système colonial de traite. Ils se sont investis en intermédiaires dans les secteurs de l’économie coloniale. Très vite urbains après avoir été des aventuriers broussards avant, ils se constituent en communautés (1948). À partir de 1950 et des plans FIDES d’équipement des territoires coloniaux français, ce sera leur apogée. Ils monteront en gamme sur le plan économique. La croissance économique et l’urbanisation ont fait naître de nouvelles activités comme le bâtiment, la construction, la quincaillerie, les grands magasins, l’importation d’articles divers. La longue période d’ajustement structurel et la dévaluation du FCFA en 1994, ont découragé les hommes d’affaires grecs à la fois solidaires et concurrents. Leur fonction d’intermédiaire s’affaiblissant, une série d’activités qu’ils faisaient (exploitation forestière, transport) sont passées ainsi dans les mains des concurrents (Libanais, Bamiléké etc. ). Avec les indépendances, ils céderont le petit commerce aux nationaux, seront touchés par l’africanisation des entreprises et la concurrence d’entrepreneurs africains dynamiques. Ils gardent encore le commerce technologique sophistiqué, les supermarchés et ont de petits investissements industriels et une place de choix dans la boulangerieGreeks arrived in Cameroon around 1920 and so they were examined from three perspectives, an internal perspective (their route based upon their migration, the cultural constitution of a diaspora, etc. ), the marks they have left to the host country and the interference they have had with the host country through their businesses. Being a visible minority among other foreigners, they were at the heart of the colonial system of trafficking. They invested in intermediate sectors of the colonial economy. Soon after urban adventurers before, they form communities (1948). Since 1950 and thanks to the FIDES plans concerning the development of French colonial territories, they will reach their peak. They will see their business expanding rapidly. Economic growth and urbanization created new activities such as building, construction, hardware, department stores, and the import of various items. The long period of structural adjustment and devaluation of the FCFA in 1994 discouraged the weakened and competition Greek businessmen. As their intermediary function, a number of their activities (forestry, transportation) placed in the hands of competitors like the Lebanese and the Bamileke. Since the country independence, they will lose their small business to the local people and they will subsequently be affected by the Africanization of business and competition dynamics of African entrepreneurs. They still keep sophisticated technology trade, supermarkets and small industrial investment and an important place in the bakery industry

Full textAbstract:
Les duala de la cote du cameroun font partie de la grande famille linguistique des populations bantu. Ils s'etaient enrichis dans le commerce de traite pendant la periode precoloniale. Apres la perte de leur monopole dans cette activite suite a la colonisation allemande, ils se reconvertirent, au cours des annees 1890, dans la culture du cacao grace a un double systeme de reseau sociaux : celui de leurs allies commerciaux et celui de leurs dependants. Les terres et la main-d'oeuvre servile jadis employes dans le commerce de traite leur fournirent les ressources materielles necessaires a cette reconversion economique. En 1907, ces entrepreneurs locaux possedaient de vastes plantations cacaoyeres dans l'arriere-pays cotier, situees dans les vallees des fleuves moungo, abo, wouri, et dibamba. Profitant de la politique economique coloniale destinee a promouvoir l'agriculture paysanne, les duala etendirent leurs plantations dans la plaine de tiko. Cette expansion s'accompagna d'un changement dans les modes d'acces a la terre et les relations de travail entre les planteurs duala et leurs esclaves domestiques. Plus tard au de la periode du mandat francais, les entrepreneurs duala investiront dans l'immobilier de location, l'exploitation du bois et l'education de leurs enfants en europe. Cette these analyse les dynamiques de transformation et d'adaptation des duala au cours de la periode etudieeThe duala, a small bantu-speaking population group located in coastal cameroon, emerged during the pre-colonial and the colonial periods as a powerful economic force. They lacked the usual forms of wealth, basing their strategy of production in a two-fold system of social networks : one made up of their allies and the other of their dependents. In 1884, germany established a protectorate over cameroon and this eventually resulted in duala middlemen traders being evicted from their role as exclusive brokers in local trade. Cocoa growing then provided an opportunity for the most successful duala merchants to reinvest the material assets previously used in commercial activities in new and lucrative ventures. Thus using land and slaves from trade, the duala opened up in the 1890s large cocoa plantations in the inland regions. In 1907, they expanded their cocoa farms in the tiko lowlands. The expension of duala cocoa enterprises brought about changes in the earlier pattern of land acquisition and the labour relationship between duala planters and their servile workers. Throughout the french mandate period, duala entrepreneurs invested in real estate, academic education, and timber businesses and somehow succeeded in adapting their entrepreneurial skills and strategy to a changing environment by a cunning manipulation of social relations

L’intérêt accordé à l’entrepreneuriat féminin reflète l’ampleur du phénomène sans cesse croissant partout dans le monde. En effet, le potentiel entrepreneurial des femmes est manifeste et ce travail doctoral s’intéresse à ce potentiel dans le contexte camerounais. La littérature en entrepreneuriat féminin propose des travaux essentiellement axés sur l’émergence des entreprises alors que les écrits se focalisant sur le développement sont rares. Pourtant, malgré les difficultés d’accès aux ressources, des femmes entrepreneurs camerounaises ont réussi. Il semble alors à la fois utile et nécessaire de faire « voir » ces cas, avec la prudence qu’apporte le protocole scientifique de la méthode des cas. Notre travail vise donc à comprendre comment et pourquoi les femmes entrepreneurs camerounaises passent d’un « petit business » à un business plus ambitieux. A ce propos, des études approfondies et comparatives de trois entreprises sélectionnées par homogénéisation dans le secteur des services ont été menées. Le guide méthodologique ainsi fourni est étayé par le concept de Business Model pour mettre au jour les cas à analyser et par la théorie des conventions pour les comprendreThe focus on female entrepreneurship reflects the growing magnitude of this phenomenon worldwide. Indeed, the entrepreneurial potential of women is obvious and this doctorate thesis focuses on this potential in the Cameroonian context. The literature on female entrepreneurship offers works mainly focused on the emergence of firms while writings dealing with development are rare. Yet, despite difficulties linked to access to resources, women entrepreneurs in Cameroon have succeeded. It has appeared both useful and necessary to “exhibit” these cases with the caution ensured by the scientific protocol of the “case study” method. So, our work aims at understanding how and why Cameroonian women entrepreneurs succeed in moving from a “small business” to a more ambitious business. In this regard, in-depth and comparative studies of three enterprises selected by homogenization in the service sector were conducted. The methodological framework thus chosen is supported by the concept of Business Model for the presentation of cases under analysis and by the convention theory for their understanding

L’entreprise est le moteur de la croissance et du développement économique. L’entrepreneur en est le bâtisseur. Il contribue à la création de richesses, d’emplois et garantit la cohésion sociale. Les pays industrialisés ont prouvé que la richesse s’acquiert par la création, l’imagination et l’innovation qui sont les vertus de l’entrepreneur. Notre thèse pointe les obstacles qui empêchent la création et le développement des entreprises en Afrique, notamment dans la zone CEMAC et présente des perspectives pour lutter contre les défaillances du système financier et bancaire qui se traduisent par une surliquidité financière, une faiblesse de l’environnement de l’investissement et une asymétrie d’informations sur les entreprises. Ces défaillances constituent les principaux facteurs explicatifs du développement du secteur informel et du coût élevé de crédit pour les TPE et les PME créant un climat de méfiance dans les affaires. Les contraintes liées au secteur informel s’expliquent par une lourdeur administrative et par une rareté de crédits bancaires. La restructuration du secteur bancaire et financier de la zone CEMAC s’avère nécessaire pour promouvoir l’entrepreneuriat au Cameroun et au TchadThe company is the motor of growth and economic development. The entrepreneur is its builder. He contributes to the creation of, riches, jobs and guarantees the social cohesion. Industrialized nations have proved that the wealth is acquired through creation, imagination and innovation which are the virtues of the entrepreneur. Our thesis reveals the obstacles which prevent the creation and the development of companies in Africa, particularly in the CEMAC zone. It also presents perspectives to fight against the failures of the financial and banking systems which are expressed by a financial excess liquidity, a weakness of the investment environment and an asymmetry of information about companies. These failures constitute the main explicative factors of the high cost of credit for VSE (Very Small Enterprise) and SME (Small and Medium-sized Enterprise) which creates a climate of mistrust in business. Such constraints concerning informal economy are explained by an administrative red tape and by the scarcity of bank loans. The restructuration of the banking and financial sectors of the CEMAC zone is necessary to encourage entrepreneurship

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of Islam on entrepreneurial initiative in Cameroon. In order to achieve this objective, the authors used data collected from 504 individuals in Douala and Yaoundé cities by the Laboratory for Research in Fundamental and Applied Economics (LAREFA) of the University of Dschang. Using the binary probit model and the bivariate probit model, the following results were obtained: 1) although not significant, the probability for a Muslim to start his own business decreases by 0.8% as compared to individuals of other religious denominations; 2) although not also significant, for an entrepreneur (or manager) to be a Muslim increases by about 8% his probability to become a well-established entrepreneur (or manager).
