Summary/Abstract: The importance and the role of entrepreneurs in a developing economy are widely accepted, but not all people know that their motivation is an important stimulus that can ensure performance. In this paper, I will present the results of a questionnaire that I applied on a number of fifty entrepreneurs from Bihor County in order to find out which were the most important motivational factors that determined them to start a business, if they changed after and if they consider that there is a relationship between motivation and the welfare of a business. After interpreting the results, I can say that the main reasons for starting their own business were the following: to be independent, to be their own bosses, in order to implement innovative ideas, to use their own skills and qualities, for the control of their own lives, to create jobs for family and friends, to have a flexible schedule and to get material and financial benefits.
