Relevance. In the context of a growing instability and complexity of the business environment (the VUCA world), entrepreneurial partnership networks (EPNs) are becoming a key factor of competitiveness. The aim of this article is to develop and test a new methodological framework, based on a project-management approach, for the quantitative assessment and comparison of EPN effectiveness. Methodology. The study employs a two-stage research design. At the first stage, the relevance of the topic was confirmed through a survey of 28 Kazakhstani entrepreneurs using the author’s “Engagement Index”. At the second, main stage, the author’s “Network Effectiveness Assessment Model” was applied. Results. The key result is a quantitative confirmation of differences in network effectiveness. It demonstrates the ability of the model to differentiate network performance depending on sectoral specifics and corporate structure. The survey results also confirmed a high level of motivation among entrepreneurs to participate in network interaction. The study contributes to theory and practice by proposing a reproducible quantitative methodology for assessing network effectiveness, enabling a transition from qualitative descriptions to objective measurement. For managers, the proposed toolkit may serve as a basis for auditing and benchmarking network structures in order to improve them. In addition, the article presents a “Comprehensive Project Structure Model” as a practical guideline for managing the formation and development of entrepreneurial networks.
