emerging
'entstehend' and 'beginnend' can both describe that something is still at the beginning. 'entstehend' emphasizes that something is just emerging or developing, so it is still being built up. 'beginnend' puts more emphasis on the starting point or the first phase of a process. It often appears in forms like 'beginnend mit' (starting with) or 'beginnend ab' (starting from/as of). Learners may confuse the words because both describe unfinished processes. If you mean the development, 'entstehend' fits better; if you mean the beginning or starting point, 'beginnend' is more natural.
