Abstract
Scientific research in many fields of knowledge is conducted using cross sectional data. Cross-sectional data present a rich source of information, however is limited to track entrepreneurs over time. To overcome such limitation a pseudo panel data is constructed using data from the Spanish Global Entrepreneurship Monitor. An empirical example is presented analyzing the impact of informal networks upon entrepreneurs in Spain over time.
