Entrepreneurship

•Entrepreneurship is the act of being an

entrepreneur, which is a French word meaning
"one who undertakes an endeavor".
•Entrepreneurs assemble resources including
innovations, finance and business acumen in an
effort to transform innovations into economic
goods.
•This may result in new organizations or may be
part of revitalizing mature organizations in
response to a perceived opportunity or necessity.
 Entrepreneurship
The most obvious form of entrepreneurship is
that of starting new businesses; however, in
recent years, the term has been extended to
include social and political forms of
entrepreneurial activity.
When entrepreneurship is describing activities
within a firm or large organization it is referred to
as intra-preneurship and may include corporate
venturing, when large entities start spin-off
organizations.
Entrepreneurship is often a difficult undertaking,
as a vast majority of new businesses fail.
 Entrepreneurship
Nevertheless such undertaking supposes
the development of more than just a
business venture.
Entrepreneurial activities are substantially
different depending on the type of
organization that is being started.
Entrepreneurship ranges in scale from solo
projects (even involving the entrepreneur
only part-time) to major undertakings
creating many job opportunities.
 Entrepreneurship
Many "high value" entrepreneurial ventures seek
venture capital or angel funding in order to raise
capital to build the business.
Angel investors generally seek returns of 20-30%
and more extensive involvement in the business.
Many kinds of organizations now exist to support
would-be entrepreneurs, including specialized
government agencies, business incubators,
science parks, and some NGOs.
Lately more holistic conceptualizations of
entrepreneurship as a specific mindset resulting in
entrepreneurial initiatives e.g. in the form of social
entrepreneurship, political entrepreneurship, or
knowledge entrepreneurship emerged.
