Nowadays, the term entrepreneurship has become a part of everyday rhetoric. The entrepreneurship also refers to intra-corporate entrepreneurship and family businesses. The usual analysis includes ups and downs, the most famous and successful companies, yet what is the story behind them – particularly, to whom entrepreneurs, intra-corporate entrepreneurs and family business turn to when they need assistance – is not so well known. This paper briefly explains the concepts of entrepreneurship, the history from which entrepreneurship has evolved, what family businesses are, their advantages and disadvantages, what intra-corporate entrepreneurship refers to, and other concepts. The aim and purpose of this paper was to investigate which support and institutional support exists in the Republic of Croatia, which entrepreneurs may seek should they find themselves in a situation from which they do not see a way out. In a media survey for this paper, an attempt was made to discover how difficult it was for entrepreneurs to contact certain support institutions. The support institutions that were found have been analyzed so that readers may understand what purpose they have, what kind of support they offer, and which support is the best for certain entrepreneurs. The difference between support and support institutions was examined. The paper has arrived at the conclusion that the Republic of Croatia has a large number of institutions which can solve certain issues entrepreneurs have with their services but the awareness of the entrepreneurs about these institutions is low and the process of obtaining support is time-consuming, as it demands going through all the bureaucratic and administrative requirements.
