Initially, the questionnaire was pre - tested among 15 entrepreneurs and 3 academic experts to confirm the validity of the questions. Based on their feedback, minor adjustments were made to the survey questions.The questionnaire was distributed mainly through two channels:(1) On - site surveys: We visited 17 representative maker spaces in China. These maker spaces are widely recognized and popular among entrepreneurs and are supported by well - known enterprises or the government. At these spaces, we invited 150 entrepreneurs to complete paper - based questionnaires.(2) Online surveys: In order to collect more data, we created an electronic questionnaire using Wenjuanxing (a commonly used questionnaire design tool in China). Then, the questionnaire was directly distributed in WeChat groups composed of entrepreneurs. A total of 300 entrepreneurs were invited to answer the questions by clicking on the online link.
