Create Ideas that Change Our World
“Entrepreneurship is the process by which individuals pursue opportunities without regard to the resources they currently control.
The essence of entrepreneurial behavior is identifying opportunities and putting useful ideas into practice.
The set of tasks called for by this behavior can be accomplished by either an individual or a group and typically requires creativity, drive, and a willingness to take risks.”, Barringer
