(1) Background: this paper analyzes the relationship between entrepreneurship and sustainability following the worldwide reference of the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) framework set by the United Nations. Nowadays, these SDGs are the inspiration for many types of entrepreneurship that combine value creation with conservation and social protection. (2) Methods: using the indicators provided by Eurostat in its section called “Sustainable development indicators”, we have developed a dataset of 21 variables applied to the European Union (EU27) for the period 2013–2017. (3) Results: the results hold that these SDGs have favored a climate of change in the European economies towards more responsible behavior on the part of society, institutions, and their business fabric, creating new sustainable entrepreneurship. (4) Conclusions: the promotion of the SDGs has contributed to increasing the rate of entrepreneurial activity in the period 2013–2017.

Education in entrepreneurship is a key factor in intentions to create companies. Given that adolescence is an ideal stage to acquire knowledge, secondary schools and universities are tasked with the challenge of offering educational programs. This study identifies potential entrepreneurs from among 897 secondary school’s students and analyzes their entrepreneurial skills in motivation, risk, dedication, empathetic and communication. Results indicate that there is a high percentage of potential entrepreneurs among secondary school and that entrepreneurship is not limited to a specific field, but rather it is recognized as a future employment option regardless of the studies students want to pursue.

The development of entrepreneurial activity is essential to achieve sustainable economic growth and development in the euro area. However, the European institutions have not given the same importance to the failure of entrepreneurial activity and its causes. With this in mind, and considering the countries of the euro area, on the basis of Eurostat’s business demography data for the years 2008 to 2016, an analysis of panel data was conducted relating the early failure of self-employed entrepreneurs to their macroeconomic and institutional environment. The results thus show a negative relationship with respect to the quality of formal institutions, entrepreneurial culture and social norms, the efficiency of goods markets and entrepreneurial freedom. On the other hand, a positive relationship is shown with respect to the high status assigned to successful entrepreneurs.
